TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a broad array of evidence that illustrates con- vincingly; the Arctic is undergoing a system-wide response to an altered climatic state.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polygonal tundra geomorphological change in response to warming alters future CO2 and CH4 flux on the Barrow Peninsula.

TL;DR: The future impact of 100 years of tundra geomorphic change on peak growing season carbon exchange is assessed in response to: (i) landscape succession associated with the thaw-lake cycle; and (ii) low, moderate, and extreme scenarios of thermokarst pit formation reported for Alaskan arctic tundRA sites.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nitrogen loss from watersheds of interior Alaska underlain with discontinuous permafrost
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors constructed annual nitrogen budgets for four years for three watersheds underlain with discontinuous permafrost in interior Alaska, and found that nitrogen export in stream flow exceeded input from deposition.
Journal ArticleDOI
Permafrost thaw affects boreal deciduous plant transpiration through increased soil water, deeper thaw, and warmer soils
Jessica M. Cable,Kiona Ogle,W. Robert Bolton,Lisa Patrick Bentley,Vladimir E. Romanovsky,Hiroki Iwata,Yoshinobu Harazono,Yoshinobu Harazono,Jeffrey M. Welker +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of permafrost thaw on boreal plant transpiration over two summers with contrasting weather conditions was investigated, and the authors found that the transpiration of deciduous and evergreen plants was least sensitive to T compared with S and D at both sites and across both years.
Journal ArticleDOI
Application of TopoFlow, a spatially distributed hydrological model, to the Imnavait Creek watershed, Alaska
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the application of the hydrological model TopoFlow to the Imnavait Creek watershed, Alaska, United States, and evaluate the impacts on the hydrology.
