Mountain Green Cover Index
Mountain Green Cover Index measures the share of mountainous areas covered by either forest, cropland, grassland or wetland. An increase in green mountaincover may reflect either the expansion of natural ecosystems or an increase in the growth of vegetation in areas previously covered by glaciers.
