Permafrost in steep bedrock slopes and its temperature‐related destabilization following climate change
TL;DR: Permafrost degradation in steep bedrock can be strongly affected by percolating water in fractures and can lead to quick and deep development of thaw corridors along permafrost and potentially destabilize much greater volumes of rock than conduction would as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Permafrost and climate in Europe: Monitoring and modelling thermal, geomorphological and geotechnical responses
Charles Harris,Lukas U. Arenson,Hanne H. Christiansen,Bernd Etzelmüller,Regula Frauenfelder,Stephan Gruber,Wilfried Haeberli,Christian Hauck,Martin Hölzle,Ole Humlum,Ketil Isaksen,Andreas Kääb,Martina A. Kern-Lütschg,Michael Lehning,Norikazu Matsuoka,Julian B. Murton,Jeanette Nötzli,Marcia Phillips,Neil Ross,Matti Seppälä,Sarah M. Springman,Daniel Vonder Mühll +21 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a review of the changing state of European permafrost within a spatial zone that includes the continuous high latitude arctic permfrost of Svalbard and the discontinuous high altitude mountain permaffrost of Iceland, Fennoscandia and the Alps.
Journal ArticleDOI
Derivation and analysis of a high-resolution estimate of global permafrost zonation
TL;DR: In this article, a global model of permafrost extent and dataset of permaferost zonation are presented and discussed, extending earlier studies by including the Southern Hemisphere, by consistent data and methods, by attention to uncertainty and scaling.
Journal ArticleDOI
Recent Advances in Permafrost Modelling
Daniel W. Riseborough,Nikolay I. Shiklomanov,Bernd Etzelmüller,Stephan Gruber,Sergei Marchenko +4 more
TL;DR: A review of permafrost modelling advances can be found in this article, with an emphasis on spatial permafore models, in both arctic and high mountain environments, with an approach to defining the relationship between climate, site surface conditions and permafure status.
Journal ArticleDOI
Permafrost thaw and destabilization of Alpine rock walls in the hot summer of 2003
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present model simulations illustrating the distribution and degradation of permafrost where the summer of 2003 has resulted in extreme thaw, and argue that hotter summers predicted by climate models for the coming decades will result in reduced stability of many alpine rock walls.
