Research Progress on Effects of Thermokarst Lakes on Soil Carbon and Microbial Community

open access: yesShuitu baochi tongbao, 2022
[Objective] The impacts of thermokarst lakes formed by rapid thawing and collapsing of permafrost on soil carbon and microorganisms were studied in order to provide a reference for the study of ecological environment and greenhouse gas emissions in such ...

A fully automatic framework for sub-pixel mapping of thermokarst lakes using Sentinel-2 images

open access: yesScience of Remote Sensing, 2023
Mapping and monitoring thermokarst lakes are crucial to understanding the impact of climate change on permafrost regions and quantifying permafrost-related carbon emissions. Several automatic methods based on remote sensing images have been developed for

Thermokarst Lake Susceptibility Assessment Induced by Permafrost Degradation in the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau Using Machine Learning Methods

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
The rapidly warming climate on the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau (QTP) leads to permafrost degradation, and the thawing of ice-rich permafrost induces land subsidence to facilitate the development of thermokarst lakes.

Thermokarst-lake-basin sediments, Tuktoyaktuk Coastlands, western arctic Canada

open access: yes, 1996
Three stages of deposition are distinguished in thermokarst-lake-basin sequences in ice-rich permafrost of the Tuktoyaktuk Coastlands, western arctic Canada: (1) widespread retrogressive thaw slumping around lake margins that rapidly transports upland ...

Panarctic lakes exerted a small positive feedback on early Holocene warming due to deglacial release of methane

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment, 2023
Climate-driven permafrost thaw can release ancient carbon to the atmosphere, begetting further warming in a positive feedback loop. Polar ice core data and young radiocarbon ages of dissolved methane in thermokarst lakes have challenged the importance of

Thermokarst sedimentology of the Tuktoyaktuk Coastlands, Northwest Territories.

open access: yes, 1993
Thermokarst sedimentology is the study of the sedimentary processes and facies associated with thermokarst. Using facies analysis, oxygen isotopes and observations of processes in the Tuktoyaktuk Coastlands, this thesis (1) classifies frozen ground ...

From permafrost soil to thermokarst lake sediment: A view from C:N:P stoichiometry

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2022
Thermokarst lakes are formed as a result of thawing ice-rich permafrost, transforming vast permafrost soil into lake sediment and changing the biogeochemistry of carbon (C), nitrogen (N), and phosphorus (P).

Automatic Mapping of Thermokarst Landforms from Remote Sensing Images Using Deep Learning: A Case Study in the Northeastern Tibetan Plateau

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2018
Thawing of ice-rich permafrost causes thermokarst landforms on the ground surface. Obtaining the distribution of thermokarst landforms is a prerequisite for understanding permafrost degradation and carbon exchange at local and regional scales.

Machine Learning and Morphometric Analysis for Evaluating the Vulnerability of Tundra Landscapes to Thermokarst Hazards in the Lena Delta: A Case Study of Arga Island

open access: yesGeoHazards
Analyses of thermokarst hazard risk are becoming increasingly crucial in the context of global warming. A significant aspect of thermokarst research is the mapping of landscapes based on their vulnerability to thermokarst processes.
