Observation and Coordination Needs for Current, Near‐Future, and Next Generation Earth‐Observing SAR Systems

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract This paper summarizes an evaluation by experts of how coordination of Earth‐observing Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) missions among the world's space agencies could advance toward game‐changing scientific discoveries and fully realizing SAR's practical capability to address many issues facing society.

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Reviews and syntheses: Effects of permafrost thaw on Arctic aquatic ecosystems [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences, 2015
The Arctic is a water-rich region, with freshwater systems covering about 16 % of the northern permafrost landscape. Permafrost thaw creates new freshwater ecosystems, while at the same time modifying the existing lakes, streams, and rivers that are ...

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 ...

Remote Sensing Risk Assessment of Valdez Glacier Lake [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Can remote sensing techniques be used to determine the probability of an outburst from the Valdez Glacier Lake, and to detect downstream areas affected by a possible glacier lake outburst ...

Ice-rich (periglacial) vs icy (glacial) depressions in the Argyre region, Mars: a proposed cold-climate dichotomy of landforms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
On Mars, so-called “scalloped depressions” are widely observed in Utopia Planitia (UP) and Malea Planum (MP). Typically, they are rimless, metres- to decametres-deep, incised sharply, tiered inwardly, polygonised and sometimes pitted.

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.

Coastal permafrost landscape development since the Late Pleistocene in the western Laptev Sea, Siberia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The palaeoenvironmental development of the western Laptev Sea is understood primarily from investigations of exposed cliffs and surface sediment cores from the shelf.
