Permafrost is warming at a global scale
Here we use a global data set of permafrost temperature time series to evaluate temperature change across permafrost regions since 2007. -
New Ground Ice Maps For Canada Using A Paleogeographic Modelling Approach
New modelling incorporating paleogeography is presented in this paper to depict the distribution of three ground ice types (relict ice, segregated ice, and wedge ice) in... -
Permafrost Degradation Subarctic Canadian Shield
Recent ground temperature and observational data for lithalsas are examined in the context of an inventory of thermokarst ponding between 1945 and 2005. In presentation format. -
