Multi-decadal degradation and fragmentation of palsas and peat plateaus in coastal Labrador, northeastern Canada
Peatland permafrost landforms, such as palsas and peat plateaus, often represent the most southern lowland permafrost occurrences in the Northern Hemisphere. While peatland permafrost is often found in continental conditions, over a thousand permafrost peatlands were recently identified along the pr...
