Permafrost degradation, subarctic Canadian Shield
Recent ground temperature and observational data for lithalsas in the subarctic Canadian Shield (permafrost mounds of ice-rich, fine-grained sediments) are examined in the context of an inventory of thermokarst ponding between 1945 and 2005. Results show that many lithalsas are thermally and physically degrading, and widespread thermokarst primarily ...

The alignment between rockfall deposit surface exposure 10Be ages and Holocene temperature records suggests that major rockfall events occurred episodically in response to climatic fluctuations. We conclude that temperature and its evolution enabled mechanical, chemical or bio‐chemical enhancement of fracture progression.

Water security from Indigenous knowledge perspective: A scoping review
Abstract Water security is a growing field of research in water resources management and has been increasingly examined from the perspectives of Indigenous knowledge. This study presents a scoping review that explores how Indigenous knowledge perspectives on water security are represented in the scientific literature.

Reassessing Alpine Permafrost Thermal State by Accounting for Ground Ice
Abstract Permafrost thermal state, representing the stored “cold energy” in the ground, is crucial for assessing permafrost changes. However, the conventional metric, mean annual ground temperature (MAGT), has inherent limitations because it overlooks the thermodynamic contribution of ground ice.

Climate extremes relevant for permafrost degradation
<p>During the past several decades, Arctic regions warmed almost twice as much as the global average temperature. Simultaneously in the high northern latitudes, observations indicate a decline in permafrost extend and landscape modifications due to permafrost degradation.

Abstract Accurate hydrological prediction in alpine regions remains challenging due to complex cryospheric processes and limited observational records. Traditional hydrological models are often subject to structural uncertainty, whereas purely data‐driven deep learning (DL) models may lack physical interpretability under non‐stationary climate ...

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Permafrost thaw is reshaping nutrient dynamics in boreal forests, but its impacts on tree nutrient limitation and functional strategies remain poorly understood. Clarifying these responses is crucial for predicting the response of boreal forests to climate change.
