Mapping and monitoring of woodlands and scrub vegetation in Qingua-dalen, South Greenland

The vegetation in the S Greenland valley Qingua-dalen, containing the best developed, subarctic birch "forest" has been mapped by two different methods. The one combined the use of false infrared air photos with ground truthing, resulting in the map Fig. 5. Besides, a description of the wo...
