ABSTRACT The McMurdo Dry Valleys, the largest ice‐free region in Antarctica, are home to a cold‐desert hydrologic system of glaciers, snowbanks, streams, and lakes. Freshwater is also stored as dead glacial ice, which is poorly constrained in terms of ion concentrations and interactions with both in situ and overlying sediments.

ABSTRACT Pingos are large mounds with cores formed of intrusive ice that form in periglacial landscapes. These ice structures can form in regions of discontinuous permafrost, commonly as hydraulic or open‐system pingos, or in locations of continuous permafrost, commonly as hydrostatic or closed‐system pingos.

ABSTRACT Freeze–thaw processes cause periglacial creep (otherwise known as solifluction) which forms solifluction lobes. These are lobate features characterized by a steep riser (front) and a smooth tread (body). Despite the widespread occurrence of these lobes, the controls on their morphometry remain poorly understood. Research into solifluction lobe

ABSTRACT Understanding fine‐scale surface changes is crucial for quantifying ecosystem dynamics and detecting landscape changes. Palsas, comparably small peatland elevations with an ice‐rich permafrost core, undergo natural cycles of growth and degradation. They can also serve as indicators of climate change in subarctic regions. Because they typically
