Retrogressive thaw slumps in the Alaskan Low Arctic may influence tundra shrub growth more strongly than climate
Abstract Thermokarst disturbance in permafrost landscapes is likely to increase across the tundra biome with climate warming, resulting in changes to topography, vegetation, and biogeochemical cycling. Tundra shrubs grow on permafrost, but shrub–thermokarst relationships are rarely studied in detail...
