The temperature changes for the future climate are predicted to be the most pronounced in
boreal and arctic regions, affecting the stability of permafrost and fire dynamics of these …

Rising air temperatures, intensifying wildfire activity, and human disturbance are driving
rapid permafrost thaw across the subarctic, particularly for thaw-sensitive discontinuous …

A multitude of disturbance agents, such as wildfires, land use, and climate‐driven expansion
of woody shrubs, is transforming the distribution of plant functional types across Arctic …

Soils in Arctic and boreal ecosystems store twice as much carbon as the atmosphere, a
portion of which may be released as high-latitude soils warm. Some of the uncertainty in the …

Methane emissions from boreal and arctic wetlands, lakes, and rivers are expected to
increase in response to warming and associated permafrost thaw. However, the lack of …

The vast boreal biome plays an important role in the global carbon cycle but is experiencing
particularly rapid climate warming, threatening the integrity of valued ecosystems and their …

Wildfires are an important factor in controlling forest ecosystem dynamics across the
circumpolar boreal zone. An improved understanding of their direct and indirect, short-to …

Soils are warming as air temperatures rise across the Arctic and Boreal region concurrent
with the expansion of tall-statured shrubs and trees in the tundra. Changes in vegetation …

Fire seasons have become increasingly variable and extreme due to changing
climatological, ecological, and social conditions. Earth observation data are critical for …

Wildfires strongly regulate carbon (C) cycling and storage in boreal forests and account for
almost 10% of global fire C emissions. However, the anticipated effects of climate change on …
