Elevation‐Dependent Permafrost Thaw on the Tibetan Plateau Delays Seasonal Discharge and Poses a Risk of Reduction in Downstream Water Availability

open access: yesEarth's Future
Global warming and permafrost thaw have significantly altered landscapes and hydrological conditions in permafrost regions. While site‐specific process studies have described hydrological changes during thawing, basin‐scale impact assessments and ...

Permafrost thaw induced drying of wetlands at Scotty Creek, NWT, Canada

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2018
Northwestern Canada is one of the most rapidly warming regions on Earth. The scale and rapidity of recently observed warming-induced changes throughout this region indicate that it is particularly sensitive to climate warming and capable of rapid ...

Integrating SfM, LiDAR and TLS for High‐Resolution Monitoring of Palsa Surface Changes and Degradation Dynamics

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding fine‐scale surface changes is crucial for quantifying ecosystem dynamics and detecting landscape changes. Palsas, comparably small peatland elevations with an ice‐rich permafrost core, undergo natural cycles of growth and degradation. They can also serve as indicators of climate change in subarctic regions. Because they typically

Scaling Arctic landscape and permafrost features improves active layer depth modeling

open access: yesEnvironmental Research: Ecology
Tundra ecosystems in the Arctic store up to 40% of global below-ground organic carbon but are exposed to the fastest climate warming on Earth. However, accurately monitoring landscape changes in the Arctic is challenging due to the complex interactions ...

Electrical Resistivity Tomography for the 2D and 3D Investigation of Pingos and Permafrost Mounds in Northern Canada's Mountain and Coastland Areas

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pingos and related permafrost mounds are widespread periglacial landforms in Arctic environments that are ice‐rich on the one hand and contain taliks on the other, making them vulnerable to climate change. So far, the interior, geophysical characteristics, and distribution of ground ice within these dome‐ or cone‐shaped features have not been ...

Localizable Climate Change Education in Schools: Examining Impacts on Students' Environmental Science Agency

open access: yesScience Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As our daily lives become increasingly affected by climate change, school‐based science education plays a critical role in preparing students to understand and respond to this global crisis. This cohort controlled quasi‐experimental study conducted in the United States examined whether a localized climate change storyline unit compared to ...

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.
