1. Evaluation of the ERA5-Land dataset for estimation of soil moisture in the permafrost region
Master-uppsats, Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografiSammanfattning : The permafrost region covers a vast area of land surface on the northern hemisphere,storing large amounts of carbon. Unfortunately, climate warming leads to permafrostthaw altering the hydrothermal state of permafrost soils. Due to the remoteness of thepermafrost region, access to field measurements is restricted.

2. Surface and Subsurface Flow Connection and Dominating Runoff Mechanism in Hillslope of Tarfala, Northern Sweden.
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapsläraSammanfattning : The Sub artic regions are becoming increasingly important due to the effects of climate change. In northern Sweden, thawing of permafrost has led to significant increases in annual minimum flows in several catchments. LÄS MER
3. Applying LPJ-GUESS on the Arctic: A model evaluation and benchmarking study
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapSammanfattning : Warming in the Arctic occurs at a much higher rate than the global average, which has a considerable impact on the Arctic terrestrial carbon cycle. Permafrost thawing can release substantial amounts of carbon, whilst tundra shrubification and tree-line advance, on the other hand, may compensate for this. LÄS MER
4. Influence of permafrost disintegration on wetland carbon fluxes in Abisko, Sweden
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapSammanfattning : The northern permafrost regions are experiencing a rapid warming as surface temperatures are rising, causing a disintegration of permafrost and a deepening of the active layer (AL). This releases previously frozen carbon, making it available for decomposition by microbes. LÄS MER
5. En resa tillbaka i tiden för att förstå framtiden : En undersökning av organiskt material i eoliska lössjordssediment på västra Grönland, Kangerlussuaq.
Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaperSammanfattning : Today's changing climate on Earth makes climate research more important than ever. By providing an understanding of the Earth's history and in particular places where large-scale climate change is taking place, for example Greenland, can one get an understanding about how the Earth will react in the future.
