Cryostratigraphy of Rhythmic Segregated Ice in Colluvium and Implications for Permafrost Slope Stability

Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The amount and stratigraphic setting of ground ice in permafrost slopes is a key control on the style and magnitude of permafrost mass wasting. Understanding the spatial and stratigraphic variations in ground ice distribution on permafrost slopes is therefore a fundamental property in assessing the stability of permafrost hillslopes.

Subsurface Investigations of Cryo‐Hydrogeological Features in a High Arctic Catchment Under Transition

Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this study, the internal structure and seasonal variations of cryo‐hydrogeological features were investigated in the Fuglebekken catchment, located near the Polish Polar Station Hornsund in Svalbard. Over a few years, rising air temperatures and intensified water circulation have significantly altered the distribution, extent, and state of ...

Effects of Surface Characteristics on the Existence of Isolated Permafrost in Northeastern Mongolia

Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Isolated patches of permafrost, where ground thermal changes are affected by ecosystem factors such as vegetation cover rather than climate, may be vulnerable to environmental disturbances in semiarid regions. However, the impacts of ecosystem factors remain underevaluated in Mongolia.

Weeds in a changing climate: Competitors or service plants?

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Reducing herbicide use and preparing agroecosystems for climate change are two top priorities on the global policy agenda. Here, we explore whether these two challenges can be tackled simultaneously. While weeds are generally considered a threat to crop production, we show that weeds can help overcome climate change challenges in agroecosystems ...

The role of soil moisture in the inland penetration of Indian monsoon low‐pressure systems

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
We use the Advanced Weather Research and Forecasting model to examine the role of soil moisture in the inland penetration of Indian monsoon low‐pressure systems (LPSs). We find that LPSs penetrate deeply into India despite a dry land surface; however, their inland penetration is adversely affected when there is a reduction in the total surface heat ...
