Divergent Responses of Bacterial Communities to Permafrost Degradation and Their Associations With Carbon Across Vertical Profiles [PDF]
Advanced SciencePermafrost degradation poses a significant threat to the organic carbon (C) pool primarily through regulating microorganisms. However, microbial responses and their associations with C loss across vertical profiles remain unclear.

Negative feedback processes following drainage slow down permafrost degradation. [PDF]
Glob Chang Biol, 2019 AbstractThe sustainability of the vast Arctic permafrost carbon pool under climate change is of paramount importance for global climate trajectories. Accurate climate change forecasts, therefore, depend on a reliable representation of mechanisms governing Arctic carbon cycle processes, but this task is complicated by the complex interaction of multiple

Permafrost degradation in the Western Russian Arctic
Environmental Research Letters, 2020 The Global Climate Observing System and Global Terrestrial Observing Network have identified permafrost as an ‘Essential Climate Variable,’ for which ground temperature and active layer dynamics are key variables.

Onshore Thermokarst Primes Subsea Permafrost Degradation [PDF]
Geophysical Research Letters, 2021 AbstractThe 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.

Permafrost change in Northeast China in the 1950s–2010s
Advances in Climate Change Research, 2021 Permafrost in Northeast China is highly sensitive to climate warming. Permafrost degradation significantly affects forest and vegetation ecosystems, as well as the safety of engineering projects and other man-made infrastructures. However, the permafrost

Research progress on hydrological effects of permafrost degradation in the Northern Hemisphere
Geoderma, 2023 Permafrost degradation alters the flow rate, direction, and storage capacity of soil moisture, affecting ecohydrological effects and climate systems, and posing a potential threat to natural and human systems.

Elevation dependency of future degradation of permafrost over the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau
Environmental Research Letters, 2023 Global warming has caused widespread permafrost degradation, but the geographic regularity of permafrost degradation is unknown. Here, we investigated the three-dimensional features of future permafrost degradation on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau.

Effects of Permafrost Degradation on Soil Carbon and Nitrogen Cycling in Permafrost Wetlands
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022 Climate change is one of the greatest threats to high-latitude permafrost and leads to serious permafrost degradation. However, few attention has been paid to whether peat soil carbon or nitrogen is sensitive to permafrost degradation.
