Interaction of thermokarst lake and permafrost in Qinghai-Tibet Plateau
Shui kexue jinzhan, 2022 In order to clarify the interaction of thermokarst lake and permafrost, a water-ice-heat coupling model considering heat conduction and convection processes was established at a typical thermokarst lake area in the Beiluhe Basin.

Roles of Thermokarst Lakes in a Warming World [PDF]
Trends in Microbiology, 2020 Permafrost covers a quarter of the northern hemisphere land surface and contains twice the amount of carbon that is currently present in the atmosphere. Future climate change is expected to reduce its near-surface cover by over 90% by the end of the 21st century, leading to thermokarst lake formation.

Energies, 2022 Lacustrine thermokarst is receiving great interest as a landscape-forming process. Despite this, research dealing with the quantitative analysis of the changes in the morphological patterns of thermokarst plains under ongoing climate change is lacking ...

International Journal of Applied Earth Observations and Geoinformation, 2021 Climate warming has accelerated permafrost degradation over the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (QTP) over the past several decades. The development of thermokarst landforms is a key indicator of permafrost degradation, while it lacks quantified measurements and ...

Landsat-Based Monitoring of Landscape Dynamics in Arctic Permafrost Region
Journal of Remote Sensing, 2022 Ice-rich permafrost thaws as a result of Arctic warming, and the land surface collapses to form characteristic thermokarst landscapes. Thermokarst landscapes can bring instability to the permafrost layer, affecting regional geomorphology, hydrology, and ...

Onshore Thermokarst Primes Subsea Permafrost Degradation [PDF]
Geophysical Research Letters, 2021 Abstract The response of permafrost to marine submergence can vary between ice‐rich late Pleistocene deposits and the thermokarst basins that thawed out during the Holocene. We hypothesize that inundated Alases offshore thaw faster than submerged Yedoma. To test this hypothesis, we estimated depths to the top of ice‐bearing permafrost

Abrupt permafrost thaw accelerates carbon dioxide and methane release at a tussock tundra site
Arctic, Antarctic, and Alpine Research, 2022 Abrupt thaw could cause permafrost ecosystems to release more carbon than is predicted from gradual thaw alone. However, thermokarst feature mapping is limited in scope, and observed responses of carbon fluxes to abrupt thaw are variable.

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

Remote 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
, 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 ...
