Ecological training set of freshwater ostracods in Canadian and Siberian periglacial regions [PDF]
Quantified palaeoenvironmental reconstructions are essential to estimate the impact of future climate changes on ecosystems. Based on faunistic data from regional multireference sites and limnological surveys, ecological training sets can be used to ...

ABSTRACT Research in geocryology is currently principally concerned with the effects of climate change on permafrost terrain. The motivations for most of the research are (1) quantification of the anticipated net emissions of CO2 and CH4 from warming and thaw of near‐surface permafrost and (2) mitigation of effects on infrastructure of such warming and

Recent enrichment of megafauna in the north of Eurasia supports the concept of Pleistocene rewilding
‘Pleistocene rewilding' refers to the concept of restoring ecosystems to their state during the Pleistocene epoch, by (re‐)introducing species or their close relatives that were present during that time, in an effort to revive ecological processes that existed before human‐driven extinctions.

Carbon Emissions From Fires in Eastern Siberian Larch Forests
The present study provides new insights on combustion processes from Siberian larch forest fires. We estimated combustion from vegetation and organic soils at 41 burned plots and spatially extrapolated our plot‐level estimates to the areas of two large fire events.

Aboveground biomass of mongolian larch (Larix sibiricledeb.) forests in the eurasian region [PDF]
We used our database of tree biomass with a number of 433 sample trees of Larix from different ecoregions of Eurasia, involving 61 trees from Mongolia for developing an additive model of biomass tree components.

Abstract We revised the Holarctic taxa of Ditrichaceae on the basis of both organellar DNA sequence data and morphological traits. After the removal of phylogenetically discordant elements related to Flexitrichum and Rhamphidium, the remaining representatives of the family cluster into three well‐supported lineages, which are recognized here as the ...

Three major herds of wild reindeer (Rangifer tarandus tarandus L.), totaling over 200,000 animals, occur in the tundra and taiga of northern Yakutia. These herds have been expanding since the late 1950s and now occupy most of their historic range. In addition, several thousand wild reindeer occupy the New Siberian Islands and adjacent coastal mainland ...

Controls on the composition and lability of dissolved organic matter in Siberia's Kolyma River basin [PDF]
High-latitude northern rivers export globally significant quantities of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) to the Arctic Ocean. Climate change, and its associated impacts on hydrology and potential mobilization of ancient organic matter from permafrost, is ...

Evidence for Lithospheric Mantle Uniformity Beneath Cratons
Abstract Cratons are characterized by thick mantle roots that have experienced high degrees of partial melting, resulting in a cold, strong, and buoyant mantle compared to its oceanic counterpart. The extent of chemical variability within cratonic roots, the role of cratons in insulating the mantle over time and subsequent triggering of continental ...
