Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Arctic landscapes are undergoing constant changes due to accelerated warming in high-latitudes. These changes include geomorphological processes linked to the degradation of permafrost, shifts in vegetation communities, and disturbances such as wildfires and floods. These disturbances have direct impacts on communities and ecosystems, triggering severe and long-lasting consequences on the subsurface permafrost and hydrology, land surface changes, and extensive ground ice loss. Associated shifts in hydrological conditions will have a substantial impact on the future evolution of the Arctic ecosystems. In this special issue, we invite studies focused on surface and subsurface hydrology and its effect on ecosystems, communities, and permafrost. These studies should include but not limited to observations (in situ and remote sensing) and modeling of the hydrological impacts on the Arctic ecosystems and landscapes.
