Rapid Saline Permafrost Thaw Below a Shallow Thermokarst Lake in Arctic Alaska

Abstract Permafrost warming and degradation is well documented across the Arctic. However, observation‐ and model‐based studies typically consider thaw to occur at 0°C, neglecting the widespread occurrence of saline permafrost in coastal plain regions. In this study, we document rapid saline permafr...
