Date of onset of soil freezing inferred from SMOS freeze/thaw product for 2012 by Kimmo Rautiainen (FMI).

FMI-SPACE participated a major review article that summarizes the feasibility of Earth Observation to analyze the changes in boreal and arctic regions of the Planet, including the processes of atmosphere, hydrosphere and terrestrial areas. The investigation analyses what are the drivers of arctic-boreal system components, and how Earth Observation can be utilized to monitor these drivers.

The review entitled “Space-borne observations for understanding changes in the arctic-boreal zone” was published in Reviews of Geophysics (2020), 58, e2019RG000652. https://doi.org/10.1029/2019RG000652
