Abstract

The high-latitude and high-elevation cryosols are experiencing some of the greatest warming over the past several decades of anywhere on Earth. This has resulted in increases in active-layer thickness in low Arctic and alpine cryosols and an increase in permafrost temperatures. There have already been reports of changes in soil properties and processes and continued changes can be expected.
