Science Needs for a Terrestrial Biosphere Tipping Point Early Warning System
Abstract Tipping points in the Earth system have the potential to cause major detrimental impacts to the biosphere and societies. Their inherent nonlinearity implies that even relatively small additional increases in external forcing might result in disproportionately large adjustments to components of the Earth system.

Abstract Carbonaceous aerosols in the Arctic are mainly attributed to long‐range transport from lower latitudes, but direct observational data over the central Arctic Ocean, particularly in summer, remain limited. We present a cruise‐based study conducted during the eighth Xuelong Arctic expedition across the central Arctic Ocean.

Abstract Canadian permafrost wildfires, characterized by surface flaming and deep organic soil smoldering, emit complex suites of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). These emissions include air toxics that pose substantial public health risks and fuel secondary pollution, yet remain understudied.

Amplified climate change across the Arctic causes significant permafrost thaw and an increase of permafrost degradation landforms. These landforms range from fine‐scale degrading ice wedge‐polygon‐networks to large‐scale features such as thermo‐erosional

Abstract Belonostomus longirostrisis was named for an isolated jaw fragment from freshwater Upper Cretaceous (Campanian) sediments of the Dinosaur Park Formation of Alberta, Canada. Following the description of the Albertan species, numerous isolated cranial and postcranial elements have been collected from the Dinosaur Park Formation and assigned to B.

Clathrate hydrate crystallization
Abstract Clathrate hydrate crystallization has been an area of interest to chemical engineers from the point of view of crystal structure, thermophysical properties, phase equilibria, kinetics, industrial applications, and environmental (climate change) implications.

The Swedish Arctic Fox Project: 40 years of research in ecology and conservation
The 4 central research themes in The Swedish Arctic Fox Project and key deliverables for practical conservation achieved over 4 decades. Abstract The scientific community widely recognizes the value of long‐term studies, especially those with individual‐level resolution; however, maintaining a consecutive data series is associated with multiple ...

Terrestrial inputs and in‐lake processes shape dissolved organic matter along a permafrost gradient
Abstract Northern permafrost landscapes store large amounts of organic carbon that can enter lakes as dissolved organic matter (DOM), but links among shoreline terrestrial sources, lake‐water DOM composition, and catchment configuration remain uncertain in low‐precipitation Shield landscapes. We combined shoreline soil‐porewater and lake‐water sampling

In Arctic tundra, the majority of plant biomass is belowground. As temperatures increase and permafrost thaws, new soil volume containing nitrogen becomes available for plant roots, potentially leading to new plant–soil interactions. Whether or not different plant communities adapt their rooting depth distribution in response to increasing active layer
