distribution. Climate warming and related drivers of soil thermal change are expected to …

Climate change is expected to increase regional and global air temperatures and
significantly alter precipitation regimes. These projected changes in meteorological …

Permafrost has great influences on the climatic, hydrological, and ecological systems on the
Qinghai–Tibet Plateau (QTP). The changing permafrost and its impact have been attracting …

Frozen soil thermal conductivity (λ eff) is a critical thermo-physical property that is required
for environmental, earth science, geotechnical and geo-environmental applications and …

Recent climate change has reduced the spatial extent and thickness of permafrost in many
discontinuous permafrost regions. Rapid permafrost thaw is producing distinct landscape …

Phenomena involving frozen soil or rock are important in many natural systems and, as a
consequence, there is a great interest in the modeling of their behavior. Few models exist …

Cold groundwater discharge to streams and rivers can provide critical thermal refuge for
threatened salmonids and other aquatic species during warm summer periods. Climate …

Various estimates of freshwater discharge to the Arctic Ocean with different methods and for
different drainage areas have shown a good consistency in long-term mean runoff ranging …

Unfrozen water plays an important role in a number of processes, including water and heat
transfer, frost heave, thaw settlement and simulations for the hydro-thermo-mechanical …

Accurate representing freeze‐thaw (FT) process is of great importance in cold region
hydrology and climate studies. With the STEMMUS‐FT model (Simultaneous Transfer of …
