Abstract. Anthropogenic climate change threatens northern permafrost environments. This compromises the existence of landforms, such as palsas and peat plateaus, which have been assessed to be critically endangered habitats. In this study, we integrated geospatial datasets statistical methods model suitable environments for plateaus across Northern Hemisphere region. The models were calibrated using data from years 1950–2000. effects on landforms by low-, moderate-, high-emissions scenarios...
Geodiversity is an essential part of nature's diversity. However, geodiversity insufficiently understood in terms its spatial distribution and relationship to biodiversity over large extents. Here, we present European data at resolutions 1 km 10 km. We assess terrestrial quantitatively as a richness variable (georichness) using commonly employed grid-based approach. The incorporate aspects geological, pedological, geomorphological hydrological diversity, which are also available separate...
ABSTRACT Palsas and peat plateaus occur in various environmental conditions, but their driving factors have not been examined across the Northern Hemisphere with harmonized datasets. Such comparisons can deepen our understanding of these landforms response to climate change. We conducted a comparative study between four regions: Hudson Bay, Iceland, Fennoscandia, Western Siberia by integrating landform observations geospatial data into MaxEnt model. Climate hydrological conditions were...
