MARC recordPermafrost zonation in Russia under anthropogenic climatic change / Frederick E. Nelson, Oleg A. Anisimov.
| Title: | Permafrost zonation in Russia under anthropogenic climatic change / Frederick E. Nelson, Oleg A. Anisimov. |
| Author(s): | Nelson, Frederick E. Anisimov, Oleg A. |
| Date: | 1993. |
| In: | Permafrost and Periglacial Processes. (1993.), Vol. 4(2) (1993) |
| Abstract: | Two scenarios of climate change based on palaeo-reconstruction method employed by Russian scientists were used in conjunction with model that produces zonal maps of permafrost distribution. Changes associated with 1.2 and 2.0°C warming of mean global temperature would be amplified in high latitudes, resulting in large reduction of area underlain by continuous permafrost. Thermokarst development is likely to be particularly marked in West Siberia. |
| Notes: | Permafrost and Periglacial Processes. Vol. 4(2) :137-148 (1993). |
