Abstract
I compared topographic variables derived from 10-meter and 30-meter Digital Elevation Models (DEM) to vegetation series and sub-series. There were correlations between variables derived from both DEM resolutions and vegetation series/sub-series; however,increasing the resolution did not improve the correlation at the series level and only slightly at the sub-series level.
