Permafrost Landscape Research in the Northeast of Eurasia

open access: yesEarth, 2022
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.

Distribution and Structure Analysis of Mountain Permafrost Landscape in Orulgan Ridge (Northeast Siberia) Using Google Earth Engine

open access: yesLand, 2022
An analysis of the landscape spatial structure and diversity in the mountain ranges of Northeast Siberia is essential to assess how tundra and boreal landscapes may respond to climate change and anthropogenic impacts in the vast mountainous permafrost of

Permafrost-Landscape Map of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) on a Scale 1:1,500,000

open access: yesGeosciences (Switzerland), 2018
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

Mapping the Main Characteristics of Permafrost on the Basis of a Permafrost-Landscape Map of Yakutia Using GIS

open access: yesLand, 2021
The purpose of this article was to compile four separate digital thematic maps of temperature and ice content of permafrost, the active layer thickness, and cryogenic processes in Yakutia as a basis for assessing changes to modern climate changes and ...

Retrospective Analysis of Permafrost Landscape Evolution in Yakutia during the Holocene Warm Intervals

open access: yesLand, 2020
The observed global warming has significant impacts on permafrost. Permafrost changes modify landscapes and cause damage to infrastructure. The main purpose of this study was to estimate permafrost temperatures and active-layer thicknesses during the ...

Temporal Behavior of Lake Size-Distribution in a Thawing Permafrost Landscape in Northwestern Siberia

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2014
Arctic warming alters regional hydrological systems, as permafrost thaw increases active layer thickness and in turn alters the pathways of water flow through the landscape.

Landscape Effects of Wildfire on Permafrost Distribution in Interior Alaska Derived from Remote Sensing

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2016
Climate change coupled with an intensifying wildfire regime is becoming an important driver of permafrost loss and ecosystem change in the northern boreal forest.

Effects of multi-scale heterogeneity on the simulated evolution of ice-rich permafrost lowlands under a warming climate [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2021
In continuous permafrost lowlands, thawing of ice-rich deposits and melting of massive ground ice lead to abrupt landscape changes called thermokarst, which have widespread consequences on the thermal, hydrological, and biogeochemical state of the ...

Long-term climate-influenced land cover change in discontinuous permafrost peatland complexes [PDF]

open access: yesHydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2021
The discontinuous permafrost zone is undergoing rapid transformation as a result of unprecedented permafrost thaw brought on by circumpolar climate warming. Rapid warming over recent decades has significantly decreased the area underlain by permafrost in

The Permafrost and Organic LayEr module for Forest Models (POLE-FM) 1.0 [PDF]

open access: yesGeoscientific Model Development, 2023
Climate change and increased fire are eroding the resilience of boreal forests. This is problematic because boreal vegetation and the cold soils underneath store approximately 30 % of all terrestrial carbon.
