Sensitivity analysis of snow cover to climate change scenarios and their impact on plant habitats in alpine terrain

In high altitude areas snow cover duration largely determines the length of the growing season of the vegetation. A sensitivity study of snow cover to various scenarios of temperature and precipitation has been conducted to assess how snow cover and vegetation may respond for a very localized area o...
