Arctic Greening May Be Hiding a Decline in Permafrost Ecosystem Resilience
Key Takeaways
- Researchers analyzed MODIS observations from 2000 to 2023 across Northern Hemisphere permafrost regions.
- Vegetation resilience strengthened before 2008 but declined broadly afterward despite continued greening.
- Atmospheric drying and climate extremes were associated with the decline in resilience.
