  • Data Descriptor: Circumpolar permafrost maps and geohazard indices for near-future infrastructure risk assessments 
    Karjalainen, Olli; Aalto, Juha; Luoto, Miska; Westermann, Sebastian; Romanovsky, Vladimir E; Nelson, Frederick E.; Etzelmüller, Bernd; Hjort, Jan (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2019)
    Ongoing climate change is causing fundamental changes in the Arctic, some of which can be hazardous to nature and human activity. In the context of Earth surface systems, warming climate may lead to rising ground temperatures ...
  • Degrading permafrost puts Arctic infrastructure at risk by mid-century 
    Hjort, Jan; Karjalainen, Olli; Aalto, Juha; Westermann, Sebastian; Romanovsky, Vladimir E; Nelson, Frederick E.; Etzelmüller, Bernd; Luoto, Miska (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2018)
    Degradation of near-surface permafrost can pose a serious threat to the utilization of natural resources, and to the sustainable development of Arctic communities. Here we identify at unprecedentedly high spatial resolution ...
  • High potential for loss of permafrost landforms in a changing climate 
    Karjalainen, Olli; Luoto, Miska; Aalto, Juha; Etzelmüller, Bernd; Grosse, Guido; Jones, Benjamin M.; Lilleøren, Karianne Staalesen; Hjort, Jan (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2020)
    The presence of ground ice in Arctic soils exerts a major effect on permafrost hydrology and ecology, and factors prominently into geomorphic landform development. As most ground ice has accumulated in near-surface permafrost, ...
  • Statistical upscaling of ecosystem CO2 fluxes across the terrestrial tundra and boreal domain: regional patterns and uncertainties 
    Virkkala, Anna-Maria; Aalto, Juha; Rogers, Brendan M.; Tagesson, Torbern; Treat, Claire C.; Natali, Susan M.; Watts, Jennifer D.; Potter, Stefano; Lehtonen, Aleksi; Mauritz, Marguerite; Schuur, Edward A. G.; Kochendorfer, John; Zona, Donatella; Oechel, Walter C.; Kobayashi, Hideki; Humphreys, Elyn; Goeckede, Mathias; Iwata, Hiroki; Lafleur, Peter M.; Euskirchen, Eugénie S.; Bokhorst, Stef; Marushchak, Maija; Martikainen, Pertti J.; Elberling, Bo; Voigt, Carolina; Biasi, Christina; Sonnentag, Oliver; Parmentier, Frans-Jan W.; Ueyama, Masahito; Celis, Gerardo; St.Louis, Vincent L.; Emmerton, Craig A.; Peichl, Matthias; Chi, Jinshu; Järveoja, Järvi; Nilsson, Mats B.; Oberbauer, Steven F.; Torn, Margaret S.; Park, Sang-Jong; Dolman, Han; Mammarella, Ivan; Chae, Namyi; Poyatos, Rafael; López-Blanco, Efrén; Christensen, Torben R.; Kwon, Min Jung; Sachs, Torsten; Holl, David; Luoto, Miska (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2021)
    The regional variability in tundra and boreal carbon dioxide (CO2) fluxes can be high, complicating efforts to quantify sink-source patterns across the entire region. Statistical models are increasingly used to predict ...
