Le changement climatique est un probleme majeur, surtout en Arctique. Ce constat global doit etre precise afin d'apprehender les consequences du phenomene car son impact se module dans l'espace selon les caracteristiques propres a chaque milieu. L'aire d'etude est situee au Svalbard ou des donnees, de differentes sources, sont collectees sur le terrain. Elles sont ensuite traitees au sein d'un systeme d'information geographique afin de modeliser les variations spatiales a grande echelle de la temperature et de la vegetation. Climate change is a major problem, especially in the Arctic. This overall finding must be taken into account in order to apprehend the consequences of phenomene, since its impact is modelled in the space according to the specific characteristics of each medium. The area of study is located in Svalbard or data from different sources are collected on the ground. They are then processed within a geographic information system in order to shape spatial variations in temperature and vegetation.
