Onshore Thermokarst Primes Subsea Permafrost Degradation

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2021
The response of permafrost to marine submergence can vary between ice‐rich late Pleistocene deposits and the thermokarst basins that thawed out during the Holocene. We hypothesize that inundated Alases offshore thaw faster than submerged Yedoma.

Monitoring Ground Surface Deformation of Ice-Wedge Polygon Areas in Saskylakh, NW Yakutia, Using Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) and Google Earth Engine (GEE)

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
As one of the best indicators of the periglacial environment, ice-wedge polygons (IWPs) are important for arctic landscapes, hydrology, engineering, and ecosystems.

FOUR YEARS OF UNMANNED AERIAL SYSTEM IMAGERY REVEALS VEGETATION CHANGE IN A SUB-ARCTIC MIRE DUE TO PERMAFROST THAW [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Warming trends in sub-arctic regions have resulted in thawing of permafrost which in turn induces change in vegetation across peatlands both in areal extent and composition. Collapse of palsas (i.e.

Permafrost - physical aspects and carbon cycling, databases and uncertainties [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Permafrost is defined as ground that remains below 0°C for at least 2 consecutive years. About 24% of the northern hemisphere land area is underlain by permafrost.

Enhanced Ultramicropore of Biomass‐Derived Porous Carbon for Efficient and Low‐Energy CO2 Capture: Integration of Adsorption and Solar Desorption

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
By increasing the ultramicropore volume of biomass‐derived porous carbon through mechanical compression and utilizing its photothermal properties, this study achieves high CO2 adsorption capacity and solar‐driven regeneration with low energy consumption, providing a novel strategy for high‐efficiency carbon capture technology.

Different Amounts of Added Litter Do Not Affect Long‐Term Carbon Mineralization and Stabilization in Topsoils and Subsoils

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Over half of global soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks are stored in subsoil. A larger fraction of carbon (C) input may be retained and stabilized in subsoil as compared to topsoil. This retained fraction determines C sequestration efficiency, which may also depend on the amount of C input.

Evaluation of the Algorithms and Parameterizations for Ground Thawing and Freezing Simulation in Permafrost Regions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Ground thawing and freezing depths (GTFDs) strongly influence the hydrology and energy balances of permafrost regions. Current methods to simulate GTFD differ in algorithm type, soil parameterization, representation of latent heat, and unfrozen water ...

Making vertebrate fossil radiocarbon dates more useful for global scientific research

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Radiocarbon dating of bones is essential for reconstructing timelines of species' occurrences, domestication, extinction, migrations, and interactions with Quaternary environments. Many studies compile these chronologies at continental to global scales by aggregating radiocarbon dates from various sources, often balancing data quantity and ...

Climate and catchment influence the postglacial succession of three lakes in south‐central Baffin Island (Nunavut), Canada

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding postglacial ontogeny in Arctic lakes helps contextualize modern‐day climatic change. We used sediment cores to characterize ecological succession in three south‐central Baffin Island lakes from deglaciation (c. 7–8k cal a BP) to present.
