Haibei
Alpine Tundra
Ecosystem Station was established in 1976, initially founded by the
Chinese Academy of Sciences and IBP program. The ecosystem
research have been carried out and achieved many
research results. In recent years, the global climate changes
research projects have been carried on at the Haibei Alpine
Tundra Ecosystem
Station. These projects are very different from previous, which need to
be considered at different scales. However, the digital
spatial
data resources for GIS analysis are very limited. Generation of new
data sources from secondary data, conversion of various
vector
and raster data formats, creation of correct projections are major
tasks at front of this project.
