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.

Threshold loss of discontinuous permafrost and landscape evolution

Global Change Biology, 2016
AbstractThis study demonstrates linkages between the 1997/1998 El Niño/Southern Oscillation index and a threshold shift to increased permafrost loss within a southern Taiga Plains watershed, Northwest Territories, Canada. Three‐dimensional contraction of permafrost plateaus and changes in vegetation structural characteristics are determined from ...

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 ...

Current State of Permafrost Landscapes of the Prilensky Plateau

Geoinformatika, 2023
The article presents the results of studying the structure of permafrost landscapes in the area of discontinuous distribution of permafrost soils in large-scale mapping. The actual material was collected by the authors in the course of research and field work on the Power of Siberia project.

Mountain permafrost landscapes of Yakutia

Geography and Natural Resources, 2009
Abstract An analysis is made of the spectrum of altitudinal zonality of mountain permafrost landscapes of Yakutia. The intervals of the values of characteristics of particular landscape altitudinal zones are provided, namely, the marks of their boundaries in accordance with a change in the latitude of the locality, the indices of freezing and thawing,

Drivers of fish biodiversity in a rapidly changing permafrost landscape

Freshwater Biology, 2021
Abstract Rapid environmental change occurring in northern permafrost regions may have profound implications for fish biodiversity but remains poorly understood. Climate change, increasing human development, and resultant permafrost thaw may combine to alter the quality and quantity of fish habitat including reductions in preferred thermal habitat ...

Airborne Bacteria over Thawing Permafrost Landscapes in the Arctic

Environmental Science & Technology
Rapid warming in the Arctic, outpacing global rates, is driving significant changes in cryospheric landscapes, including the release of long-preserved microorganisms. This study focuses on thawing permafrost in Northern Alaska, where microbes previously preserved in frozen soils are introduced into thermokarst lakes, rivers, and coastal waters and may ...
