Description
Summary:The elevation was accessed for the area of interest in 90 m spatial resolution from the TanDEM-X 90 m digital elevation model (DEM) product (Krieger et al, 2013). Prior to spatial topographical parameters extraction, the DEM was resampled from the 90-m cell spacing to a 30-m resolution. The result was classified into 589 different possible combinations of elevation, slope angle, aspect. For the classification we used the possible combinations of elevation, slope, and aspect which were grouped into the following categories: Elevation: 0-400 m 400-450m 450-500m 500-600m 600-650m 650-700m 700-1000m 1000-1500m Slope: 0-2° 2-4° 4-6° 6-8° 8-10° 10-12° 12-16° 16-18° 18-20° 20-25° 25-50° Aspect: 0-45° 45-90° 90-135° 135-180° 180-225° 225-270° 270-315° 315-360° Format: Geotiff; projection UTM58N and 30x30 m tiles; extent: 642010.1, 654910.1, 7462218, 7492908 m (xmin, xmax, ymin, ymax) This work has been supported by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF), which enabled the Russian-German research programme "Kohlenstoff im Permafrost KoPf" (grant no. 03F0764A), by the Initiative and Networking Fund of the Helmholtz Association and by the ERC consolidator grant Glacial Legacy of Ulrike Herzschuh (grant no. 772852).
