Permafrost degradation under expanding thermokarst lakes, Yukon, Canada
, 2014 This poster presents patterns of permafrost degradation under lakes with eroding shorelines in Old Crow Flats, Northern Yukon. Old Crow Flats is an arctic peatland in the continuous permafrost zone. Two shorelines with contrasting rates of recession, bank morphology, and vegetation cover were studied in the field.

Thermokarst lakes of Western Siberia: a complex biogeochemical multidisciplinary approach
International Journal of Environmental Studies, 2014 Western Siberia’s thermokarst lakes are highly dynamic hydrochemical systems that receive chemical elements from the surrounding peat soil and exchange greenhouse gases with the atmosphere, delivering dissolved carbon and metals to adjacent hydrological systems.

Quantification of upland thermokarst features with high resolution remote sensing
Environmental Research Letters, 2013 Climate-induced changes to permafrost are altering high latitude landscapes in ways that could increase the vulnerability of the vast soil carbon pools of the region.

Arctic Thermokarst Lakes – Carbon Comes and Goes
This PhD project focused on the physical and biogeochemical variability of Arctic thermokarst lake sediments and the resulting impact on the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of these lakes. A better understanding of this topic is of importance because thermokarst lakes induce large-scale erosion of sediment organic carbon (SOC) along their shorelines ...

Remote sensing of drained thermokarst lake basin successions
, 2018 Thermokarst lakes are important factors for permafrost landscape dynamics and carbon cycling. Thermokarst lake cover is particularly high in Arctic lowlands with ice-rich permafrost. In many of these vast lowland regions, drained thermokarst lake basins of different age have been identified that overlap each other in space, suggesting intense dynamics ...
