Vegetation Impact on ThAw-depth progression in SvaLbard RiS ID: 12569

Svalbard is among the regions warming up fastest on earth. Where and to which extent the warming soils will impact the stability of the frozen soils remains uncertain. While the warming will speed up soil thaw over summer, the rate co-depends on surface conditions. For example, well-drained, vege...
