DOI: 10.1016/j.catena.2021.105628
Abstract: Abstract Podzols developed on glacial and periglacial features provide the opportunity to reconstruct permafrost past limits and related paleoclimatic variations using micromorphological analysis. Analyzing 10 thin sections on 8 soils classified as Podzol in two… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/17445647.2021.1957033
Abstract: High elevation areas are sensitive and vulnerable to climate change and exhibited relatively rapid changes in response to warming involving changes of floristic composition, species upward migration, shrub and tree encroachment and surface area changes.… read more here.
