The dynamic changes of the thawing and freezing processes of the active layer cause seasonal subsidence and uplift over a large area on the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau due to ongoing climate warming. To analyze and investigate the seasonal freeze–thaw process of the active layer, we employ the new small b...
