Permafrost hydrology in changing climatic conditions: seasonal variability of stable isotope composition in rivers in discontinuous permafrost

Abstract: Role of changing climatic conditions on permafrost degradation and hydrology was investigated in the transition zone between the tundra and forest ecotones at the boundary of continuous and discontinuous permafrost of the lower Yenisei River. Three watersheds of various sizes were chosen to represent the characteristics of the regional landscape conditions. Samples of river flow, precipitation, snow cover, and permafrost ground ice were collected over the watersheds to determine isotopic composition of potenti… Show more

“…However, World Meteorological Organization station records from Igarka and Norilsk show significant air temperature increases since 1985 [29,40]. These trends, representative of the northern and southern portions of the study area, suggest that the detected regional vegetation change can at least partially be associated with regional climatic warming.…”

“…For example, throughout the study area, the closed forest and tundra landscapes are interwoven in a complex pattern. Such spatial heterogeneity is controlled by highly variable permafrost conditions, reflective of a complex history of sedimentation and landscape development [29].…”

“…Due to global climate warming, significant efforts have been devoted to permafrost research, such as permafrost variations on the hemispheric-scale permafrost temperature changes (Wu and Zhang, 2008;Guglielmin and Cannone, 2012;Streletskiy et al, 2014;Wu et al, 2015), permafrost degradation (Jorgenson et al, 2006;Ravanel et al, 2010;Sannel and Kuhry, 2011;Streletskiy et al, 2015a;Park et al, 2016), hydrological processes in permafrost regions Wang et al, 2009;Park et al, 2013;Streletskiy et al, 2015b;Ford and Frauenfeld, 2016), feedbacks to climate change (Schuur et al, 2008;Park et al, 2015;Abbott et al, 2016), and other aspects. The increasing thickness of the active layer has been indicated by many observations in permafrost regions at high latitudes and altitudes (Brown et al, 2000;Frauenfeld et al, 2004;Zhang et al, 2005;Fyodorov-Davydov et al, 2008;Wu et al, 2010;Zhao et al, 2010;Callaghan et al, 2011;Liu et al, 2014a, b;Stocker et al, 2014).…”
