Variation in albedo and other vegetation characteristics in non-forested northern ecosystems: the role of lichens and mosses
Vegetation has a profound impact on climate through complex interactions and feedback loops, where especially regulation of albedo, the ratio of reflected to incoming solar radiation, is important at high latitudes. How vegetation albedo varies along environmental gradients in tundra ecosystems is s...
