Emergence of steeply stratified permafrost thaw ponds changes zooplankton ecology in subarctic freshwaters
Climate change and associated permafrost thaw are creating new shallow waterbodies in vast regions of the circumpolar Arctic. These thaw ponds are characterized by high concentrations of colored dissolved organic matter originating from the degrading watershed, inducing a strong vertical thermal and...
