Thermokarst lake inception and development in syngenetic ice-wedge polygon terrain during a cooling climatic trend, Bylot Island (Nunavut), eastern Canadian Arctic [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2020
Thermokarst lakes are widespread and diverse across permafrost regions, and they are considered significant contributors to global greenhouse gas emissions.

Regional Patterns and Asynchronous Onset of Ice-Wedge Degradation since the Mid-20th Century in Arctic Alaska

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2018
Ice-wedge polygons are widespread and conspicuous surficial expressions of ground-ice in permafrost landscapes. Thawing of ice wedges triggers differential ground subsidence, local ponding, and persistent changes to vegetation and hydrologic connectivity

Hydrochemistry of hillslope permafrost catchments with degrading and stable ice-wedge polygons, Ogilvie Mountains, Yukon, Canada

open access: yesArctic Science
Ice-wedge polygonal terrain is one of the most widespread landscapes in continuous permafrost, and at many locations, is undergoing substantial degradation.

Biogeochemical Processes in the Active Layer and Permafrost of a High Arctic Fjord Valley

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2020
Warming of ground is causing microbial decomposition of previously frozen sedimentary organic carbon in Arctic permafrost. However, the heterogeneity of the permafrost landscape and its hydrological processes result in different biogeochemical processes ...

Monitoring of thermal contraction cracking at an ice wedge site, central Spitsbergen [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
P(論文)Thermal contraction cracking was monitored for two years in a continuous permafrost region. A dilatometer read the separation of a pair of benchmarks installed at both sides of an ice-wedge trough. The outputs were recorded in a data logger together

The importance of freeze/thaw cycles on lateral tracer transport in ice-wedge polygons [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Abstract. A significant portion of the Arctic coastal plain is classified as polygonal tundra and plays a vital role in soil carbon cycling. Recent research suggests that lateral transport of dissolved carbon could exceed vertical carbon releases to the atmosphere.

Liquid‐Responsive Shape‐Memory Nanofiber‐Reinforced Scaffolds for Cartilage Repair

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A liquid‐responsive shape‐memory, nanofiber‐reinforced QCG scaffold combines conformal defect filling, an aligned architecture that is structurally permissive for endogenous cell infiltration, and sustained KGN release. This integrated design enhances BMSC viability, migratory activity, and chondrogenic differentiation and promotes hyaline cartilage ...

Targeted‐Penetrating Biomimetic Hybrid Transfersomes for Enhanced Transdermal Gene Transfection in Hypertrophic Scar Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Hypertrophic scar fibroblasts membrane‐hybridized cationic transfersomes enable efficient loading and transdermal delivery of TGF‐β1 siRNA through multiple skin penetration pathways. The biomimetic platform enhances homotypic targeting, transfection, and immune evasion, suppresses TGF‐β1‐driven fibrotic signaling, and reduces extracellular matrix ...
