Internal Permafrost Structure of Geomorphologically Distinct Palsas in Northern Sweden Revealed by Quasi‐3D ERT

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Permafrost in northern peatlands occurs within individual palsas or extensive peat plateaus and controls local carbon storage. These permafrost landforms are complex, and their internal structure remains poorly understood. We used quasi‐3D electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) measurements, supported by UAV‐LiDAR topography, frost probing ...

Lake changes and their driving factors in circum-arctic permafrost regions from 1990 to 2022

open access: yesEcological Indicators
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.

Quantifying the Surface Deformation of Pingos on the Alaskan North Slope Using Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR)

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pingos are large mounds with cores formed of intrusive ice that form in periglacial landscapes. These ice structures can form in regions of discontinuous permafrost, commonly as hydraulic or open‐system pingos, or in locations of continuous permafrost, commonly as hydrostatic or closed‐system pingos.

A Generic Approach to Creating a National Soil Security Strategy

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil is a living and non‐renewable resource that underpins our very existence. It produces our food, filters our water, stores vast amounts of carbon, cycles essential nutrients, and sustains the rich tapestry of biodiversity on which our planet depends.

Changing climates and environments within the complex Middle to Late Pleistocene fill of an overdeepened valley at Niederweningen, Switzerland

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
Glacially overdeepened valleys in the northern Alpine Foreland preserve Middle to Late Pleistocene sedimentary sequences that may serve as valuable archives for reconstructing past environmental changes in response to shifts in climate. This study presents a multidisciplinary analysis of two sediment cores from the overdeepened Wehntal Valley at ...

Permafrost degradation of peatlands in northern Sweden

open access: yes, 2023
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.

Towards an ‘absolute’ timing of biostratigraphic and environmental phases from the Saalian late glacial to the Weichselian pleniglacial in central Europe—Insights from a lacustrine succession in Lichtenberg, northern Germany

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
Palynological records are central to the biostratigraphic subdivision of the Late Pleistocene in central Europe. Yet many interglacial and interstadial phases—such as the Eemian, Brörup and Odderade—remain only poorly constrained in time due to limited numerical dating.

North American Circum-Arctic Permafrost Degradation Observation Using Sentinel-1 InSAR Data

open access: yesRemote Sensing
In the context of global warming, the accelerated degradation of circum-Arctic permafrost is releasing a significant amount of carbon. InSAR can indirectly reflect the degradation of permafrost by monitoring its deformation.

Palaeoenvironmental and climatic changes from the lateglacial of the Saalian to the Late Weichselian in central Poland: a multiproxy study from Józefów

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
Józefów site is a case study which provides a detailed record of environmental and climate changes and confirms the main traces of the landscape morphogenesis of the Late Pleistocene established in central‐eastern Europe. This study presents a multiproxy reconstruction of palaeoenvironment under variable climatic conditions from the retreat of the ...

The effects of bioturbation on porewater chemistry and early marine diagenesis: Evidence from a modern intertidal zone in Abu Dhabi, U.A.E.

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Early marine carbonate cements generally form in CaCO3‐supersaturated seawater at the seabed or shallow burial depths, resulting in syn‐sedimentary cemented firmgrounds and hardgrounds. The processes controlling early marine diagenesis are complex, particularly in coastal environments where geochemistry is influenced by different water sources
