Spatial Distribution of Permafrost in the Xing’an Mountains of Northeast China from 2001 to 2018

Permafrost is a key element of the cryosphere and sensitive to climate change. High-resolution permafrost map is important to environmental assessment, climate modeling, and engineering application. In this study, to estimate high-resolution Xing’an permafrost map (up to 1 km<sup>2</sup>...
