Changes in near-surface permafrost temperature and active layer thickness in Northeast China in 1961-2020 based on GIPL model

Shuai Huang et al.

Summary: In this study, the GIPL model was used to analyze the distribution of MATBAL and ALT in Northeast China. The results show a significant decrease in permafrost area and a rapid increase in MATBAL during the period from 1961 to 2020. This study highlights the importance of permafrost dynamics in affecting the hydrological environment, boreal ecosystem, soil biology, and engineering infrastructure.

Impact of land management on available water capacity and water storage of peatlands

Haojie Liu et al.

Summary: Peatlands around the world, drained for agriculture and forestry practices, have led to carbon and water loss, as well as soil degradation. Research shows that the soil's available water capacity increases with bulk density but decreases significantly with further increases in bulk density. The average available water capacity of agricultural peatlands in Germany is estimated to be 37.8%, with a water storage of approximately 19.3 km³.

Simulation of frozen ground distribution in northeast China based on a surface frost number model

Daqing ZHAN et al.

Summary: This study analyzed the spatial and temporal variation in ground surface freezing and thawing indices in the frozen ground region of northeast China (FGRN China). The results showed a significant degradation in permafrost in FGRN China. The study also identified the turning point years for various indices and demonstrated the trend in permafrost boundary degradation. The findings provide important data for research on the hydrological, climate, and ecological changes caused by permafrost degradation.

Spatial Distribution and Variation Characteristics of Permafrost Temperature in Northeast China

Wei Shan et al.

Summary: This study examines the distribution and changes of frozen soil in Northeast China using MODIS Terra/Aqua data. The findings show that the area of permafrost is decreasing, with lower temperature permafrost mainly found in the Greater Khingan Mountains.

Permafrost changes in the northwestern Da Xing'anling Mountains, Northeast China, in the past decade

Xiaoli Chang et al.

Summary: Permafrost degradation in the northwest Da Xing' anling Mountains, Northeast China, is still unclear. The study reveals varying ground temperatures and declining thaw depths, which are influenced by factors such as air temperature, snow cover, and population decline. Significant permafrost warming is observed at larger depths in most study areas.

Spatiotemporal variations and regional differences in air temperature in the permafrost regions in the Northern Hemisphere during 1980-2018

Guojie Hu et al.

Summary: This study analyzed the variations and regional differences in air temperature from 1980 to 2018, showing that the warming rate in permafrost regions was higher than the global average, with significant differences between high latitude, transitional, and high altitude permafrost regions. Additionally, the results indicated different trends in freezing and thawing degree-days across different permafrost zones.
