Effects of Surface Characteristics on the Existence of Isolated Permafrost in Northeastern Mongolia

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, Volume 37, Issue 2, Page 240-253, April/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Isolated patches of permafrost, where ground thermal changes are affected by ecosystem factors such as vegetation cover rather than climate, may be vulnerable to environmental disturbances in semiarid regions. However, the impacts of ecosystem factors remain underevaluated in Mongolia.

Organic carbon characteristics in yedoma and thermokarst deposits on Baldwin Peninsula, West-Alaska [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
As Arctic warming continues and permafrost thaws, more soil and sedimentary organic carbon (OC) will be decomposed in northern high latitudes. Still, uncertainties remain in the quantity and quality of OC stored in different deposit types of permafrost ...

Temporal Behavior of Lake Size-Distribution in a Thawing Permafrost Landscape in Northwestern Siberia

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2014
Arctic warming alters regional hydrological systems, as permafrost thaw increases active layer thickness and in turn alters the pathways of water flow through the landscape.

Research into Cryolithozone Spatial Pattern Changes Based on the Mathematical Morphology of Landscapes

open access: yesEnergies, 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 ...

Permafrost Terrain Disturbance Susceptibility in the Nacho Nyäk Tagé (Stewart River) Watershed, Yukon, Canada

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, Volume 37, Issue 2, Page 203-226, April/June 2026.
ABSTRACT The Nacho Nyäk Tagé (Stewart River) watershed in central Yukon (Canada) is characterized by discontinuous permafrost that is locally highly sensitive to thaw. This study aims to map the spatial distribution of permafrost terrain disturbances (PTDs) in the watershed and model thaw susceptibility to support community‐led land‐use planning by the

Drivers of Dissolved Organic Matter Quality and Concentration in a Mountainous Subarctic Watershed, Yukon, Canada

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Northern permafrost regions contain vast frozen stores of organic carbon that are vulnerable to thaw and mobilization. While considerable attention has been paid to carbon export from large Arctic rivers, gaps remain in characterizing dissolved organic matter (DOM) quality and export in permafrost influenced catchments that contain a mosaic of

Warming-induced destabilization of peat plateau/thermokarst lake complexes [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research, 2011
Peat plateaus are widespread at high northern latitudes and are important soil organic carbon reservoirs.

Effect of permafrost thawing on organic carbon and trace element colloidal speciation in the thermokarst lakes of western Siberia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
To examine the mechanisms of carbon mobilization and biodegradation during permafrost thawing and to establish a link between organic carbon (OC) and other chemical and microbiological parameters in forming thermokarst (thaw) lakes, we studied the ...

A synthesis of thermokarst lake water balance in high-latitude regions of North America from isotope tracers

open access: yesArctic Science, 2017
Numerous studies utilizing remote sensing imagery and other methods have documented that thermokarst lakes are undergoing varied hydrological transitions in response to recent climate changes, from surface area expansion to drainage and evaporative ...
