Permafrost degradation and soil erosion as drivers of greenhouse gas emissions from tundra ponds

Climate change poses a serious threat to permafrost integrity, with expected warmer winters and increased precipitation, both raising permafrost temperatures and active layer thickness. Under ice-rich conditions, this can lead to increased thermokarst activity and a consequential transfer of soil or...
