High resolution seismic and ground penetrating radar-geophysical profiling of a thermokarst lake in the western Lena Delta, Northern Siberia [PDF]
High resolution seismic and ground-penetrating radar (GPR) have been acquired over Lake Nikolay in the western Lena Delta (Siberia) in order to study the uppermost basin fill and the bordering frozen margins. GPR measurements were completed on the frozen

Simulating thermokarst lakes [PDF]
Thermokarst lakes, which form from thawing permafrost, alter landscapes and hydrology and can release significant amounts of methane to the atmosphere. To learn more about the dynamics of thermokarst lakes, Kessler et al. created a three‐dimensional numerical model of these lakes that includes the surrounding topography.

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

This dataset describes two 17 m long sediment cores taken from beneath two thermokarst lakes in the Yukechi Alas, Central Yakutia, Russia. The first core was taken from below an Alas thermokarst lake (YU-L7; 61.76397°N, 130.46442°E) and the second core ...

Microbial assemblages in Arctic coastal thermokarst lakes and lagoons. [PDF]
Abstract Several studies have investigated changes in microbial community composition in thawing permafrost landscapes, but microbial assemblages in the transient ecosystems of the Arctic coastline remain poorly understood. Thermokarst lakes, abrupt permafrost thaw features, are widespread along the pan-Arctic coast and transform into ...

Thermokarst-lake methanogenesis along a complete talik (thaw bulb) profile [PDF]
Thermokarst (thaw) lakes emit methane (CH4) to the atmosphere, with the carbon (C) originating from terrestrial sources such as the Holocene soils of the lakes’ watersheds, thaw of Holocene- and Pleistoceneaged permafrost soil beneath and surrounding the

Variations in weather conditions have a significant impact on thermokarst lakes, such as the sub-lake permafrost thawing caused by global warming. Based on the analysis of Landsat sensor images by ENVI TM 5.3 software, the present study quantitatively ...

Mapping thermokarst lakes in different physical states on the central Tibetan plateau
Mapping and monitoring the spatial–temporal evolution of thermokarst lakes on the Tibetan Plateau can significantly contribute to the estimation of climate change impacts on permafrost degradation.
