Shrubs Effects on Soil Temperatures, Snow Depth, and Vegetation Greenness in Arctic-alpine Tundra [PDF]
Arctic ecosystems experience rapid changes in temperatures due to climate-induced warming and as an effect, deciduous shrub abundance is increasing throughout the northern hemisphere.

Arctic plants and temperature: do spatial relationships predict change over time? [PDF]
Temperature in the Arctic is increasing rapidly, potentially triggering global climate feedback if the carbon in the Arctic soil is released. Plants are affected by the rising temperature and play crucial roles in ecosystem function and atmosphere ...

Early Spring Post-Fire Snow Albedo Dynamics in High Latitude Boreal Forests Using Landsat-8 OLI Data [PDF]
Taking advantage of the improved radiometric resolution of Landsat-8 OLI which, unlike previous Landsat sensors, does not saturate over snow, the progress of fire recovery progress at the landscape scale (less than 100 m) is examined.
