Modelling the Sensitivity of Yukon River Biogeochemical Dynamics to Environmental and Chemical Drivers: Implications for Dissolved Organic Carbon

open access: yesHydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 4, April 2026.
We present a novel, process‐based, river model that effectively captures the interplay among hydrological, chemical, and soil parameters shaping riverine DOC transformations and reproduces observed DOC concentrations in the Yukon River. Sensitivity analysis highlights the importance of understanding the variability in DOC entering the headwater from ...

Evaluation of the energy budget of thermokarst lake in permafrost regions of the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau

open access: yesAdvances in Climate Change Research
Thermokarst lake formation accelerates permafrost degradation due to climate warming, thereby releasing significant amounts of carbon into the atmosphere, complicating hydrological cycles, and causing environmental damage.

Permafrost Mass Wasting in Ice‐Rich Landscapes: Recent Advances (2013 to 2024) on Mechanisms, Dynamics and Impacts

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, Volume 37, Issue 2, Page 284-304, April/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Across circumpolar permafrost regions, climate change is destabilizing ice‐rich hillslopes, increasing the frequency and magnitude of thaw‐driven mass wasting. This paper reviews recent studies (2013–2024) on thaw‐driven mass wasting, focusing on the processes, morphology and trajectories of geomorphic change and their implications for ...

Permafrost hydrology in changing climatic conditions: seasonal variability of stable isotope composition in rivers in discontinuous permafrost [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Role of changing climatic conditions on permafrost degradation and hydrology was investigated in the transition zone between the tundra and forest ecotones at the boundary of continuous and discontinuous permafrost of the lower Yenisei River.

The use of CORONA images in remote sensing of periglacial geomorphology: an illustration from the NE Siberian coast [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
CORONA images have been used for the mapping of periglacial features on the Bykovsky Peninsula and adjacent Khorogor Valley in northeast Siberia. Features, mapped and analysed within a geographical information system, include thermokarst depressions ...

Limnological evolution of Zelma Lake, a recently drained thermokarst lake in Old Crow Flats (Yukon, Canada)

open access: yesArctic Science, 2017
Evidence from remote sensing studies suggests that the frequency of thermokarst lake drainage events is increasing in response to climate change, but the consequences of these changes on the limnology of remaining waterbodies remain unknown.

Monitoring Thermokarst Lake Drainage Dynamics in Northeast Siberian Coastal Tundra

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
Thermokarst lakes in permafrost regions are highly dynamic due to drainage events triggered by climate warming. This study focused on mapping lake drainage events across the Northeast Siberian coastal tundra from 2000 to 2020 and identifying influential ...

Subsurface Investigations of Cryo‐Hydrogeological Features in a High Arctic Catchment Under Transition

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, Volume 37, Issue 2, Page 267-283, April/June 2026.
ABSTRACT In this study, the internal structure and seasonal variations of cryo‐hydrogeological features were investigated in the Fuglebekken catchment, located near the Polish Polar Station Hornsund in Svalbard. Over a few years, rising air temperatures and intensified water circulation have significantly altered the distribution, extent, and state of ...

Landsat-Based Trend Analysis of Lake Dynamics across Northern Permafrost Regions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Lakes are a ubiquitous landscape feature in northern permafrost regions. They have a strong impact on carbon, energy and water fluxes and can be quite responsive to climate change.
