A synthesis of methane dynamics in thermokarst lake environments [PDF]
Abstract Greenhouse gas emissions from physical permafrost thaw disturbance and subsidence, including the formation and expansion of thermokarst (thaw) lakes, may double the magnitude of the permafrost carbon feedback this century. These processes are not accounted for in current global climate models.

High carbon emissions from thermokarst lakes of Western Siberia. [PDF]
AbstractThe Western Siberia Lowland (WSL), the world’s largest permafrost peatland, is of importance for understanding the high-latitude carbon (C) cycle and its response to climate change. Warming temperatures increase permafrost thaw and production of greenhouse gases.

Dissolved organic carbon in thermokarst lakes
The Arctic is warming faster compared to other regions on Earth, resulting in significant permafrost thaw, a process that causes the release of stored organic carbon into aquatic systems, particularly thermokarst lakes. These dynamic systems, formed by the degradation of ice-rich permafrost, play an important role in the global carbon cycle.

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.

Thermokarst lakes are formed following ice-rich permafrost thaw and widely distribute in the cold regions with high latitude and elevation. However, the micro-eukaryotic communities (MECs) in thermokarst lakes are not well studied.

Periglacial Lake Origin Influences the Likelihood of Lake Drainage in Northern Alaska
Nearly 25% of all lakes on earth are located at high latitudes. These lakes are formed by a combination of thermokarst, glacial, and geological processes.

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.

Evolution of a High-Mountain Thermokarst Lake in the Swiss Alps [PDF]
Thermokarst lakes, a characteristic landscape element of the Arctic, are rarely found outside arctic situations. Here, a 30-yr photogrammetric monitoring series of a thermokarst lake in the Gruben area, Swiss Alps, is presented. The lake, situated in an environment of dead-ice remains and creeping permafrost, reached a final size of ca.
