Upper Kuparuk River Region NDVI trend 1985-2007 (Raynolds et al 2010)
Landsat TM and ETM data were used to calculate NDVI for the study area (823 km^2). This image shows the results of a slope of linear regression of NDVI for 1985, 1989, 1995,... -
Ivotuk Vegetation Maps (Reidel et al. 2005)
The Ivotuk study site is located in northwestern Alaska, on the North Slope of the Brooks Mountains Range. The study site was chosen because four tundra vegetation types, moist... -
Circumpolar Arctic AVHRR False Color-Infrared (CIR) Map
Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) data were obtained from the USGS Global AVHRR 10-day composite data. (http://edcdaac.usgs.gov/1KM/1kmhomepage.asp) (Markon et... -
Alaska Arctic AVHRR NDVI Map
The normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) is a measure of greenness. NDVI was calculated as: NDVI = (NIR - R) / (NIR + R), where NIR is the spectral reflectance in the... -
Circumpolar Arctic Biomass (Raynolds et al 2012)
This map portrays an estimate of above ground plant biomass for the tundra biome based on trans-Arctic field data and AVHRR NDVI (Raynolds et al. 2012). Aboveground phytomass... -
Circumpolar Arctic AVHRR NDVI Trend 1982-2008 (Bhatt et al. 2010)
The normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) is a measure of greenness. NDVI was calculated as: NDVI = (NIR - R) / (NIR + R), where NIR is the spectral reflectance in the...
