Widespread deepening of the active layer in northern permafrost regions from 2003 to 2020

Widespread deepening of the active layer in northern permafrost regions from 2003 to 2020

The changing thermal state of permafrost is an important indicator of climate change in northern high latitude ecosystems. The seasonally thawed soil active layer thickness (ALT) overlying permafrost may be deepening as a consequence of enhanced polar warming and widespread permafrost thaw in northe...
