The impact of permafrost thaw at Eight Mile Lake watershed: Vegetation data from land cover classes from an upland watershed undergoing permafrost thaw

This data set contains meausrements ofpercent of ground cover (vegetation, water, bare soil) from sites throughout the wathershed within certain land cover types identified by an unsupervised landcover classification. The purpose was to see how land cover classes differed in soil properties and if we could detect diffences in classes undergoing permafrost thaw that results in thermokarst.
