Changing Permafrost in the Arctic and its Global Effects in the 21st Century (PAGE21)

Start date: Nov 1, 2011, End date: Oct 31, 2015,

Permafrost is defined as ground that remains continuously at or below 0°C for at least two consecutive years; some 24% of the land surface in the northern Hemisphere is classified as permafrost. In the Northern high latitudes, strong warming has been observed over the recent decades, and climate models project strong future warming. A projected decline in the extent of permafrost will have a major ...
