Analysis of NDVI variation and snowmelt around Zackenberg station, Greenland with comparison of ground data and remote sensing
Snow and permafrost are significant climatic factors affecting the climate in high latitudes and especially in arctic regions. Moreover, results of conducted scientific studies have shown that snow is crucial for photosynthetic activity and therefore vegetation vigor and growing season in arctic environments. This master thesis aims to investigate the changes in photosynthetic activity in Zackenbe
