Field mission in Abisko: what about under-ice water?

Non classé

26 March 2025

In March 2025, two researchers of GET (O.S. Pokrovsky and L. Orgogozo) and two master students (A. Scamacca and B. Emery) were engaged in a field mission in late winter period in Arctic Sweden, for studying the chemical state of under-ice water in small ponds in the boreal peatlands around the Abisko Scientific Research Station. Clues about winter transport processes in the area are anticipated from this field work, to be used for setting up permaFoam simulations of the sub-surface transfers in this area.

Future permafrost degradation under climate change in a headwater catchment of central Siberia: quantitative assessment with a mechanistic modelling approach

In December 2024 a paper presenting projections of climate change impacts by 2100 in a forested headwater catchment in Central Siberia close to the Evenkian Field Station has been published by Thibault Xavier, Laurent Orgogozo, Anatoly S. Prokushkin, Esteban Alonso-González, Simon Gascoin, and Oleg S. Pokrovsky in The Cryosphere. In this work, the permaFoam cryo-hydrogeological […]
