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.

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

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 ...

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 Landscapes: Classification and Mapping [PDF]

open access: yesGeosciences, 2019
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,

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

open access: yesGeosciences, 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

Remote Sensing of Landscape Change in Permafrost Regions

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, 2016
AbstractAmplification of global warming in Arctic and boreal regions is causing significant changes to permafrost‐affected landscapes. The nature and extent of the change is complicated by ecological responses that take place across strong gradients in environmental conditions and disturbance regimes.

Influences of shifts in climate, landscape, and permafrost on terrestrial hydrology [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research, 2012
This study has simulated the terrestrial hydrology associated with different climate, landscape, and permafrost regime scenarios for the field case example of the relatively well characterized coastal catchment of Forsmark, Sweden. The regime scenarios were selected from long‐term simulation results of climate, topographical, shoreline, and associated ...

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.

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 ...

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.
