Summary: | This project aims to define processes within the hydrology-permafrost-methane system at the lake- to watershed scale across the seasonal to millennial time scales. The study domain, Goldstream Valley, Interior Alaska, United States of America, offers a platform for process-oriented insights that are applicable for landscapes with discontinuous permafrost and thaw lakes, which are common in the sub-arctic region. One of the topics we are investigating is how and why the extent of permafrost has varied since the last ice age up until today and especially how the flow and storage of water has controlled (and been controlled by) permafrost. This dataset consists of meteorological, soil, runoff, and snowpack data from 2015 to 2019 from several hydro-meteorological stations within the Goldstream watershed. |
