Developments in Permafrost Science and Engineering in Response to Climate Warming in Circumpolar and High Mountain Regions, 2019–2024

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Research in geocryology is currently principally concerned with the effects of climate change on permafrost terrain. The motivations for most of the research are (1) quantification of the anticipated net emissions of CO2 and CH4 from warming and thaw of near‐surface permafrost and (2) mitigation of effects on infrastructure of such warming and

Antarctica's vegetation in a changing climate

open access: yesWIREs Climate Change, Volume 14, Issue 1, January/February 2023., 2023
Antarctica's unique terrestrial ecosystems are changing with significant impact on the local vegetation. Change is manifold and includes alterations in abiotic and biotic interactions. How the vegetation will respond is still unclear. Abstract Antarctica plays a central role in regulating global climatic and oceanographic patterns and is an integral ...

Shrubs Strongly Influence Snow Properties in Two Subarctic Watersheds

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding changes in snow distribution in permafrost ecosystems is fundamental to predicting their response to future climate change. The expansion of tall shrubs into tundra ecosystems can trap snow and insulate permafrost ecosystems during the winter, but the overall insulation effect is dependent upon many ecosystem properties. To study

A Database Engineered System for Big Data Analytics on Tornado Climatology [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Recognizing the challenges with current tornado warning systems, we investigate alternative approaches. In particular, we present a database engi-neered system that integrates information from heterogeneous rich data sources, including climatology data for tornadoes and data just before a tornado warning.

Microbial Ecology of Permafrost Soils: Populations, Processes, and Perspectives

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Permafrost microbial research has flourished in the past decades, due in part to improvements in sampling and molecular techniques, but also the increased focus on the permafrost greenhouse gas feedback to climate change and other ecological processes in high latitude and alpine permafrost soils.
