Constraining bubbling of methane from thermokarst lakes [PDF]
In northern thermokarst lakes, which form in depressions left as permafrost thaws, methane, a greenhouse gas, can be released from lake sediments to the atmosphere through bubbling, or ebullition. Constraining the amount of methane released through bubbling would help scientists understand the role of thawing permafrost in the carbon cycle and global ...

Józefów site is a case study which provides a detailed record of environmental and climate changes and confirms the main traces of the landscape morphogenesis of the Late Pleistocene established in central‐eastern Europe. This study presents a multiproxy reconstruction of palaeoenvironment under variable climatic conditions from the retreat of the ...

Thermokarst lake waters across the permafrost zones of western Siberia [PDF]
This work describes the hydrochemical composition of thermokarst lake and pond ecosystems, which are observed in various sizes with different degrees of permafrost influence and are located in the northern part of western Siberia within the continuous ...

Proximate Climate Drivers of Beaver Pond Occupancy and Range Expansion in Arctic Alaska
To understand why beavers are colonizing the Arctic, we evaluated which climate drivers underpin beaver pond dynamics. Warm Junes, mild winters, green summers, and wet springs facilitate pond establishment. Rapid improvement in these conditions across recent decades provides mechanistic support that climate change is driving beaver colonization of the ...

Thermokarst lakes increased atmospheric methane levels [PDF]
Ice cores taken from Greenland indicate that during the last deglaciation, approximately 10,000 years ago, increases in temperature occurred at the same times as increases in atmospheric methane, a potent greenhouse gas. The source of the increase in atmospheric methane is still debated, but it has been suggested that thermokarst lakes, which form from

Abstract Despite the importance of coastal areas for the transfer of selenium (Se) from rivers to the open ocean and its bioavailability to food webs, dissolved Se concentrations and speciation in these ecosystems remain poorly understood. We conducted a 3‐yr study with monthly water column sampling at five stations spanning from the North Sea to the ...

ABSTRACT This study investigates the multi‐decadal evolution of a glacier forefield under permafrost conditions in the Combins Massif (western Swiss Alps). A multi‐method approach based on historical and recent datasets is used to analyze its landform components.
