Permafrost is a distinct feature of the terrestrial Arctic and is vulnerable to climate warming.
Permafrost degrades in different ways, including deepening of a seasonally unfrozen …

Unfrozen soil water affects the physical, chemical, hydrological, and mechanical properties
of frozen soils, and climate change makes these relationships more complicated. The …

This book provides a general survey of Geocryology, which is the study of frozen ground
called permafrost. Frozen ground is the product of cold climates as well as a variety of …

That there is something wrong with the climate, and permafrost has something to do with it,
is a vague public notion. For the media, permafrost is now and then a source of alarming …

Permafrost thawing as a result of global warming is expected to foster the biological
remineralization of intact organic carbon and nitrogen and release greenhouse gas (GHG) …

Permafrost maps are needed for infrastructure planning, climatic change adaptation
strategies and northern development but often lack sufficient detail for these purposes. The …

Relationships were determined between methane (CH4) production and in situ conditions
within the permafrost active layer during a single melt season at Stordalen, Sweden, with a …

The Yedoma layer, a permafrost layer containing a massive amount of underground ice in
the Arctic regions, is reported to be rapidly thawing. In this study, we develop the Permafrost …

A comparative analysis of the metagenomes from two 30 000-year-old permafrost samples,
one of lake-alluvial origin and the other from late Pleistocene Ice Complex sediments …

Understanding paleoenvironmental conditions of the permafrost formation allows us to
estimate the permafrost carbon pool and its behavior upon thawing in a changing climate. In …
