Thaw processes in ice-rich permafrost landscapes represented with laterally coupled tiles in a land surface model [PDF]
Earth system models (ESMs) are our primary tool for projecting future climate change, but their ability to represent small-scale land surface processes is currently limited.

Abstract Carbonaceous aerosols in the Arctic are mainly attributed to long‐range transport from lower latitudes, but direct observational data over the central Arctic Ocean, particularly in summer, remain limited. We present a cruise‐based study conducted during the eighth Xuelong Arctic expedition across the central Arctic Ocean.

Abstract Canadian permafrost wildfires, characterized by surface flaming and deep organic soil smoldering, emit complex suites of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). These emissions include air toxics that pose substantial public health risks and fuel secondary pollution, yet remain understudied.

Lake changes and their driving factors in circum-arctic permafrost regions from 1990 to 2022
The rapid increase in temperatures and escalating human activities have led to a reduction or even disappearance of the thickness of the permafrost layer around the Arctic.

Topographic and Climatic Determinants of Soil Organic Carbon Across Landscapes: A Meta‐Analysis
ABSTRACT The soil is the greatest natural store of organic carbon, holding between 1500 to 1550 Pg C of organic carbon at the top 100 cm of the soil globally—roughly twice the carbon pool in the atmosphere. The spatial distribution of this stock is controlled by a complex chain of controls: topographic position regulates the hydrological redistribution,

Terrestrial inputs and in‐lake processes shape dissolved organic matter along a permafrost gradient
Abstract Northern permafrost landscapes store large amounts of organic carbon that can enter lakes as dissolved organic matter (DOM), but links among shoreline terrestrial sources, lake‐water DOM composition, and catchment configuration remain uncertain in low‐precipitation Shield landscapes. We combined shoreline soil‐porewater and lake‐water sampling

Abstract Erosion from ice‐rich permafrost thaw (“thermokarst”) alters tundra vegetation cover and soil moisture, and laterally transports organic material into lakes, altering net fluxes of carbon dioxide (FCO2), methane (FCH4), and nitrous oxide (FN2O).

Permafrost degradation of peatlands in northern Sweden
Abstract. Climate heating is degrading palsa peatlands across the circumpolar permafrost region. Permafrost degradation may lead to ecosystem collapse and potentially strong climate feedbacks, as this ecosystem is an important carbon store and can transition to being a strong methane emitter.

Abstract Coastal river deltas can act as important nitrate sinks, reducing nutrient loads that contribute to coastal hypoxia. Their removal capacity depends not only on local biogeochemical conditions but also on the transport pathways of nutrients through the delta.

Abstract Boreal forests represent about 20% of the global forest carbon sink and contribute to climate change mitigation, yet land surface models (LSMs) struggle to simulate their gross primary production (GPP). Space‐borne observations of solar‐induced fluorescence (SIF) have been used to improve LSM GPP through data assimilation.
