Permafrost Mass Wasting in Ice‐Rich Landscapes: Recent Advances (2013 to 2024) on Mechanisms, Dynamics and Impacts

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Across circumpolar permafrost regions, climate change is destabilizing ice‐rich hillslopes, increasing the frequency and magnitude of thaw‐driven mass wasting. This paper reviews recent studies (2013–2024) on thaw‐driven mass wasting, focusing on the processes, morphology and trajectories of geomorphic change and their implications for ...

A Decade of Post‐Fire Succession Amplifies the Effect of Wildfire on the Surface Radiation Balance and Permafrost Thaw in Subarctic Peatlands

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Increasing wildfire activity is driving permafrost thaw in subarctic peatlands across the southern Northwest Territories, but the key mechanisms and progression of thaw following fire remain poorly understood. In response, 10 years (2015–2024) of near‐continuous surface (four‐component radiation, wind, and snow) and subsurface measurements ...

Holocene Glacial–Paraglacial–Periglacial Transitions of a Sub‐Arctic Glacial Cirque, Fremri‐Grasárdalur, Northern Iceland

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The aim of this work is to study a variety of glacial, periglacial and paraglacial features found in a small cirque, Fremri‐Grasárdalur, in Tröllaskagi (Northern Iceland). We implement a multidisciplinary approach combining high‐resolution geomorphological mapping, horizontal/vertical boulder displacement (from 1994 to 2019) and surface ...

Morphology of Antarctic Polygons and Implications for Polygon Evolution and Subsurface Ice Dynamics

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Polygonal terrain results from thermal contraction, is commonly found in periglacial environments, and serves as a valuable proxy for interpreting subsurface ice distribution and climate history on Earth and Mars. In this study, we investigate the morphology of polygons in Beacon Valley, Antarctica, to assess the relationship between polygon ...

The Early Upper Palaeolithic in British caves: problems and potential Le Paléolithique supérieur ancien dans les grottes de Grande‐Bretagne : problèmes et potentiels

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
Recent years have seen landmark progress in our understanding of early Homo sapiens occupation of Europe, owing to new excavations and the application of new analytical methods. Research on British sites, however, continues to lag. This is because of limitations inherent in existing cave collections, and limited options for new fieldwork at known sites.
