Spatial variability of the forest line in the khibiny mountains (based on remote sensing materials)

Mikheeva, A. I. LU (2010) In Vestnik Moskovskogo Universiteta, Seriya Geografiya p.18-22
Abstract

Determination of spatial position of the upper forest line in Khibiny mountains is important to assess its dynamics caused by global environmental changes. Through analysis of high-resolution satellite images and application of the cartographical method we have determined the position of the forest line and its spatial variations, and explained factors influencing its position. This study has resulted in the map «Spatial variations of the forest line in Khibiny mountains» in the scale of 1 : 50 000 and in geographical analysis of the compiled map.
