Vegetation cover in the Eurasian Arctic:Distribution, monitoring, and role in carbon cycling
This volume is a compilation of studies on interactions of land-cover/land-use change with climate in a region where the climate warming is most pronounced compared to other areas of the globe. The climate warming in the far North, and in the Arctic region of Northern Eurasia in particular, affects...
