Where present, permafrost exerts a primary control on water fluxes, flowpaths, and
distribution. Climate warming and related drivers of soil thermal change are expected to …

Numerous international scientific assessments and related articles have, during the last
decade, described the observed and potential impacts of climate change as well as other …

This chapter assesses the state of physical, biological and social knowledge concerning the
Arctic and Antarctic ocean and cryosphere, how they are affected by climate change, and …

Thermokarst lakes are an important ecosystem component in permafrost terrains; therefore,
quantifying changes in these lakes is important for evaluating the water balance and carbon …

The term thermokarst describes the processes and landforms that involve collapse of the
land surface as a result of the melting of ground ice. We review the literature that has …

Thermokarst lakes and drained lake basins are widespread in Arctic and sub-Arctic
permafrost lowlands with ice-rich sediments. Thermokarst lake formation is a dominant …

Quantifying changes in thermokarst lake extent is of importance for understanding the
permafrost‐related carbon budget, including the potential release of carbon via lake …

This chapter assesses the state of physical, biological and social knowledge concerning the
Arctic and Antarctic ocean and cryosphere, how they are affected by climate change, and …

Lakes are a ubiquitous landscape feature in northern permafrost regions. They have a
strong impact on carbon, energy and water fluxes and can be quite responsive to climate …

Northwestern Alaska has been highly affected by changing climatic patterns with new
temperature and precipitation maxima over the recent years. In particular, the Baldwin and …
