With climate change and the increment of human activities, global permafrost is undergoing
degradation, threatening the stability of engineering and the ecological environment of the …

Climate change and associated Arctic amplification cause a degradation of permafrost
which in turn has major implications for the environment. The potential turnover of frozen …

Abstract Permafrost on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (QTP) undergoes significant thawing and
degradation, which affects the hydrological processes, ecosystems and infrastructure …

Frost heave hazard is the uneven uplift of the ground surface due to the freezing of water
and the expansion of ice bodies in soil, especially in seasonally frozen soil. First, this study …

Differential synthetic aperture radar interferometry (D-InSAR) has been applied in permafrost
environments to detect surface deformation caused by freeze-thaw processes in the active …

The source region of the Yangtze River (SRYR, 1.4× 105 km2 above Zhimenda station) on
the Tibetan Plateau (TP) has 78% permafrost coverage. The streamflow depth increased at …

Shallow slope instability poses a significant ecological threat, often leading to severe
environmental degradation. While vegetation, particularly woody plants, is commonly …

Rock glaciers represent typical periglacial landscapes and are distributed widely in alpine
mountain environments. Rock glacier activity represents a critical indicator of water reserves …

In the past few years, space‐geodesy has measured continued postseismic deformation in
the region of the 2015 Gorkha Mw 7.8 earthquake. Previous studies have suggested that the …

The degradation of ice-rich permafrost can form thermokarst landforms such as thermokarst
lakes. There are a large number of thermokarst lakes distributed in the ice-rich permafrost …
