Reviews and syntheses: Effects of permafrost thaw on Arctic aquatic ecosystems
The Arctic is a water-rich region, with freshwater systems covering about 16% of the northern
permafrost landscape. Permafrost thaw creates new freshwater ecosystems, while at the …

Permafrost promotes shallow groundwater flow and warmer headwater streams
The presence of permafrost influences the flow paths of water through Arctic landscapes and
thereby has the potential to impact stream discharge and thermal regimes. Observations …
