Permafrost degradation on a warmer Earth: Challenges and perspectives [PDF]
, 2018 Permafrost, the permanently frozen ground, is warming due to global temperature rise. Permafrost research has progressed rapidly in the last decade, as large areas in the Polar Regions, in mountain environments and on high-altitude plateaus are ...

Role of permafrost degradation on evapotranspiration on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau
Shui kexue jinzhan, 2022 The Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (QTP), known as the "Asian Water Tower", is extremely sensitive to climate change. Studying the impacts of permafrost degradation on evapotranspiration is conducive to improving the understanding of the response of hydrological ...

Optical properties and bioavailability of dissolved organic matter along a flow-path continuum from soil pore waters to the Kolyma River mainstem, East Siberia [PDF]
, 2016 The Kolyma River in northeast Siberia is among the six largest Arctic rivers and drains a region underlain by vast deposits of Holocene-aged peat and Pleistocene-aged loess known as yedoma, most of which is currently stored in ice-rich permafrost ...

Effect of permafrost thaw on CO2 and CH4 exchange in a western Alaska peatland chronosequence [PDF]
, 2014 Permafrost soils store over half of global soil carbon (C), and northern frozen peatlands store about 10% of global permafrost C. With thaw, inundation of high latitude lowland peatlands typically increases the surface-atmosphere flux of methane (CH4), a

Impacts of Permafrost Degradation on Carbon Stocks and Emissions under a Warming Climate: A Review
Atmosphere, 2021 A huge amount of carbon (C) is stored in permafrost regions. Climate warming and permafrost degradation induce gradual and abrupt carbon emissions into both the atmosphere and hydrosphere.
