As we have found out in our last class Alaska is a frozen Wetland. One third of its land mass is included in the Arctic Crile. So in response to the sentence previous, we must take steps to understand the growth patterns of vegetation in such climates by taking into account climate regularities as well as changes such as permafrost, precipitation, and snow cover. Ultimately the goal of researching growth patterns and weather regulation is to better understand the environment to make more efficient maps, and to understand arctic land temperature year round. Along with satellite images, the NDVI (normalized difference vegetation index) has helped make Arctic vegetation possible and maintainable because each tracks its changing climate on via ground samples one via weather predictions. These help determine when would be the best time to distribute vegetation and when the ground will evolve from the frozen ice masses to a fertile land mass in the summer season.
Alaska has come to the forefront of the list of environments affected by global warming climate change. But as we understand the land and the climate more and more, we may still be able to affect the rising of the tides and the melting of the glaciers and ultimately no more climate response.
