This project will address the following questions:
1) What is the net effect of permafrost thawing-induced biophysical and biogeochemical feedbacks to the climate system?
2) How do these two types of feedback differ between the discontinuous and continuous permafrost zones?
3) Is the reported decrease (increase) in net CO2 (CH4) exchange based on plot- (<1m2) and ecosystem-scale (~1km2) flux m...

Summary:
Spring breakup in Northern Rivers are often associated with record water levels and often lead to flooding. Present methods of forecasting the severity of these events are hampered by lack of understanding. The acquired knowledge and understanding obtained from these studies will be applied to the enhancement of suitable models for predicting the time and magnitude of these events....
