Permafrost Landscape Research in the Northeast of Eurasia
The results of permafrost landscape studies on northeastern Eurasia are presented in this review. The assessment of permafrost vulnerability to disturbances and global warming was the basis for the development of these studies.

Landsat-Based Monitoring of Landscape Dynamics in Arctic Permafrost Region
Ice-rich permafrost thaws as a result of Arctic warming, and the land surface collapses to form characteristic thermokarst landscapes. Thermokarst landscapes can bring instability to the permafrost layer, affecting regional geomorphology, hydrology, and ...

Permafrost-Landscape Map of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) on a Scale 1:1,500,000
The history of permafrost landscape map compilation is related to the study of ecological problems with permafrost. Permafrost-landscape studies are now widely used in geocryological mapping. Permafrost-landscape classifications and mapping are necessary

Permafrost Landscapes: Classification and Mapping [PDF]
Permafrost landscapes occupy 25% of the world’s land area. The formation, dynamics, and evolution of these landscapes are greatly controlled by permafrost processes and thus require special approaches to classification and mapping. Alases, pingoes,

Mapping Mountain Permafrost Landscapes in Siberia Using Landsat Thermal Imagery [PDF]
Intensive development of South Yakutia, a mountainous area in the Russian sporadic permafrost zone, must be founded on knowledge about regional permafrost conditions. New permafrost maps for mountainous areas in South Yakutia (the Elkon Mountains and the
