Convective heat transfer of spring meltwater accelerates active layer phase change in Tibet permafrost areas

<p>Convective heat transfer (CHT) is one of the important processes that control the near-ground surface heat transfer in permafrost areas. However, this process has often not been considered in most permafrost studies, and its influence on freezing–thawing processes in the active layer lacks...
