MARC recordUsing climate and vegetation studies in southern Greenland to estimate the natural resources during the Norse period / Birger Ulf Hansen.
| Title: | Using climate and vegetation studies in southern Greenland to estimate the natural resources during the Norse period / Birger Ulf Hansen. |
| Author(s): | Hansen, Birger Ulf. |
| Date: | 1991. |
| In: | Acta Borealia. (1991.), Vol. 8(1) (1991) |
| Abstract: | Recent climatic studies and satellite-based monitoring have shown great variation in biomass production from year to year due to minor climate fluctuations. In areas populated to capacity with farms it can result in over-grazing and soil erosion. Results have implications for future agricultural management and indicate some of problems faced by Norse. |
| Notes: | Acta Borealia. Vol. 8(1) :40-55 (1991). |
