Methane emissions from northern lakes under climate change: a review
Northern lakes are important sources of CH4 in the atmosphere under the background of permafrost thaw and winter warming. We synthesize studies on thermokarst lakes, including various carbon sources for CH4 emission and the influence of thermokarst ...

Abstract High‐latitude systems are warming faster than the global average, altering the rates of silicon (Si) mobilization from terrestrial to aquatic systems. Dissolved Si (DSi) concentration and its ratio with other nutrients exert strong controls on algae blooms in fresh and marine receiving waters, especially in high‐latitude regions where diatoms ...

Decadal-scale hotspot methane ebullition within lakes following abrupt permafrost thaw
Thermokarst lakes accelerate deep permafrost thaw and the mobilization of previously frozen soil organic carbon. This leads to microbial decomposition and large releases of carbon dioxide (CO _2 ) and methane (CH _4 ) that enhance climate warming ...

Retrogressive Thaw Slump Morphology and Dynamics in Saline Permafrost in Northeast Greenland
Abstract Saline permafrost occupies a significant portion of permafrost in the Northern Hemisphere and extends several kilometers inland from the present Arctic coastline. However, its thermal conditions, mechanical degradation and geomorphological impacts are poorly understood.

Changes in the Distribution of Thermokarst Lakes on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau from 2015 to 2020
Thermokarst lakes are widely distributed on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (QTP). However, owing to the lack of high-precision remote sensing imagery and the difficulty of in situ monitoring of permafrost regions, quantifying the changes in the distribution ...

Currently, palsa mires in the southern limit of circumpolar permafrost zone are characterized by an increased intensity of thermokarst processes. In the south of Nature Park Numto the cyclic character of frozen mound formation was replaced by their ...

Abstract Anticipating the decomposition of permafrost organic matter (OM) following thaw is critical for improving projections of climate‐carbon feedbacks. Stable carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) isotope profiles provide integrated records of the environmental and biogeochemical processes that shaped OM during its accumulation and may therefore improve our ...

Effects of Hillslope Thermokarst in Northern Alaska [PDF]
Permafrost thawing is increasing in the Arctic and sub‐Arctic [Osterkamp and Romanovsky, 1996; Osterkamp, 2007] in response to climate warming [Hassol, 2004]. One consequence of thawing permafrost is the development of thermokarst (physical depression of ground surface) because of reduced support of overlying soil [Jorgenson et al., 2006].

Abstract Thermokarst lakes on Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau (QTP) are significant sources of greenhouse gas emissions, yet the underlying governing processes remain poorly understood. This study refines the Advanced Lake Biogeochemistry Model (ALBM) to characterize the unique environmental and biogeochemical processes of QTP thermokarst lakes. Key improvements
