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

Nonuniform temperature and light relationships of moss‐associated nitrogen fixation across climates
Light, moisture, and temperature response of nitrogen fixation in moss–cyanobacteria associations across five climatically contrasting ecosystems. Responses of nitrogen fixation in moss–cyanobacteria associations to light (μmol photons m−2 s−1), moss relative water content (%), and temperature (°C) across five climatically contrasting ecosystems ...

Evolutions of Non‐oxygenated Compounds in Sunlit Subarctic Thermokarst Pond Surface Waters
Abstract With global climate change, ground subsidence caused by permafrost thawing leads to the formation of thermokarst ponds, where organics from eroding permafrost accumulate in part as dissolved organic matter (DOM). Surface waters were collected from two subarctic thermokarst ponds with distinct characteristics: one palsa‐affected pond, which is ...

Emergent Regimes of River Meandering and Permafrost Extent in Arctic Floodplains
Abstract Permafrost in Arctic floodplains impacts carbon stores, ecosystems, and infrastructure, yet the processes controlling its distribution remain poorly constrained. Here we present a numerical model for the coupled evolution of river meandering and floodplain permafrost that captures the competition between bank erosion and permafrost growth.

First Empirical Assessment of Ice Content From a Himalayan Rock Glacier
Abstract Climate warming and degradation of glaciers and permafrost in High Mountain Asia is threatening the sustainability of the region's natural “water towers” and allied ecosystems and infrastructure. Approximately 25,000 Himalayan rock glaciers exist and, being more resilient to climatic change than glaciers, they represent important freshwater ...
