1. Changes in July albedo and its relationship with EVI over the last two decades in the Swedish alpine region
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapAbstract : Vegetation in the subarctic is expected to respond to climate warming as its growth becomes less temperature limited. This has previously been recorded in the form of treeline advances and increasing shrub cover. Changes in vegetation cover may accelerate warming due to a decrease in summer albedo, in what is termed surface albedo feedback. READ MORE
