Spectral Discrimination of Vegetation Classes in Ice-Free Areas of Antarctica

Spectral Discrimination of Vegetation Classes in Ice-Free Areas of Antarctica

Detailed monitoring of vegetation changes in ice-free areas of Antarctica is crucial to determine the effects of climate warming and increasing human presence in this vulnerable ecosystem. Remote sensing techniques are especially suitable in this distant and rough environment, with high spectral and...
