VAWS: Deconstructing Surface Water in Permafrost Regions

Speaker: Erin Trochim, University of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF)

Satellite records from the mid 1980s onward provide the opportunity to examine surface water distribution and change in permafrost regions. This is important because the nature of permafrost can create conditions where change is likely to occur but hydrology conditions can be highly variable. We will discuss how to account for these conditions and produce summaries which can be easily understood and updated.
