Rock glaciers in the Ulakhan-Chistay ridge (axial part of the Chersky mountain range)

open access: yesЛëд и снег, 2019
The Ulakhan-Chistay Ridge is interesting by the fact that one of the most extensive mountain glaciations in northeast Russia is located here. In addition, there are widespread specific glacial-cryogenic formations  – stone glaciers related to glacial and

Monitoring the Permafrost Conditions along Pipeline Routes in Central Yakutia, Russia

open access: yesLand, 2022
Pipelines are critical infrastructure for Yakutia, transporting vital supplies to communities in this vast northern region. The pipeline routes in central Yakutia traverse areas of ice-rich permafrost that is sensitive to temperature changes.

The study of the ground freezing method using natural cold to protect the foundation pit from groundwater inflow

open access: yesИнженерно-строительный журнал, 2015
When the bottom of the foundation pit is below the groundwater level, groundwater drawdown is required; as a rule, it is extremely expensive. In order to reduce water drawdown costs in areas with consistently low air temperatures we suggest to excavate ...

Permafrost temperature and active-layer thickness of Yakutia with 0.5-degree spatial resolution for model evaluation [PDF]

open access: yesEarth System Science Data, 2013
Based on the map of landscapes and permafrost conditions in Yakutia (Merzlotno-landshaftnaya karta Yakutskoi0 ASSR, Gosgeodeziya SSSR, 1991), rasterized maps of permafrost temperature and active-layer thickness of Yakutia, East Siberia were derived.

Climate and Permafrost Shifts in Yakutia’s Arctic and Subarctic from 1965 to 2023

open access: yesLand
By analyzing the last 50–60 years of climate changes in Arctic and Subarctic Yakutia, we have identified three distinct periods of climate development.

Mapping Mountain Permafrost Landscapes in Siberia Using Landsat Thermal Imagery

open access: yesGeosciences, 2018
Intensive development of South Yakutia, a mountainous area in the Russian sporadic permafrost zone, must be founded on knowledge about regional permafrost conditions. New permafrost maps for mountainous areas in South Yakutia (the Elkon Mountains and the

Influence of Rainfall Changes on the Temperature Regime of Permafrost in Central Yakutia

open access: yesLand, 2021
Climate change effects, such as melting of glaciers and sea ice in response to rising temperatures, may lead to an increase in global water availability and thus in precipitation.

Origin, evolution and biogeographic dynamics of the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) in Southwestern Europe

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The Pleistocene is a key period for understanding the evolutionary history and palaeobiogeography of the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus). The species was first documented in southeastern Iberia at the beginning of the Middle Pleistocene and appears to have rapidly spread throughout Southwestern Europe, where it was found in numerous ...

Description of large, well‐preserved Enchodus specimens from the Bearpaw Formation of Alberta, Canada

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Fishes of the genus Enchodus were abundant and cosmopolitan in the Late Cretaceous, but are primarily known from isolated remains in Canada. Four well‐preserved fish skulls were recovered in recent years from ammolite mines sampling the Bearpaw Formation of Southern Alberta, and are here referred to Enchodus petrosus Cope, 1874.

Analysis of the Main Factors Controlling the Formation of Subaerial Taliks, Using a One-Dimensional Mathematical Model. A Case Study for the Shestakovka River Basin (Central Yakutia)

open access: yesЛëд и снег
This study presents a mathematical model of heat transfer in a subaerial talik. The model is based on the concepts presented in classical works on permafrost, as well as on the results of geological and geophysical research carried out in the Shestakovka
