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.

Degradation of warm permafrost and talik formation on the Qinghai‒Tibet Plateau in 2006–2021
Advances in Climate Change ResearchPermafrost is degrading globally, particularly those with low thermal stability on the Qinghai‒Tibet Plateau, owing to climate change. However, the inadequacy of direct research on permafrost degradation based on in-situ monitoring limits the prediction ...
