Spatial variability in mean annual soil temperatures is primarily influenced by the thermal decoupling between air- and ground-surface temperature in winter.
Combined temperature and electrical resistivity measurements show the distribution of permafrost and how it is related to topographic position and vegetation.
Drying of tundra landscapes will limit subsidence-induced acceleration of permafrost thaw.
NGEE Arctic team members attended the 10th Annual ABoVE Science Team Meeting to indroduce Phase 4 of the project to facilitate ongoing and new collaborations between NGEE Arctic and NASA ABoVE.
NGEE Arctic team members presented an overview of NGEE Arctic’s scientific research and investment in Alaska at pre-conference events associated with the Alaska Sustainable Energy Conference.
The NGEE Arctic team is hosting virtual seminars focused on NGEE Arctic Phase 4 Model Evaluation Sites, northern latitude collaborations, and our early career researchers.
