Water and energy fluxes from a permafrost peat plateau: examining the controls on runoff generation
Water and energy fluxes from a treed peat plateau in a wetland-dominated discontinuous permafrost basin near Fort Simpson, NWT, Canada, were examined to determine the factors controlling runoff generation from peat-covered permafrost slopes. A water balance approach and the Dupuit-Forchheimer equati...
