Winnipeg residents chip away at frozen drains to curb spring flooding
Some Winnipeg community members armed with shovels and ice chippers waded through water in an attempt to clear frozen drains and catch basins, as spring thawing caused flooding in parts of the city over the weekend.

I can see grass again! #Maine #Thawing
Sunday temperature rose and it started thawing. Millions of ice crystals and water drops was glittering on the boughs and twigs. And I discovered none of it is visible in a photo.

Rapidly warming Arctic has entered a ‘new regime’

Rising temperatures, increasing precipitation, thawing permafrost and melting ice are pushing the Arctic outside its historical norms.

Arctic river erosion linked to permafrost thaw

Permafrost, the thick layer of perennially frozen ground that covers much of the Arctic, slows down the migration of Arctic rivers, according to a new Caltech study. River migration is a common process in which a river's path meanders over time due to erosion of the riverbanks. This rerouting, which can also occur in sudden floods, poses a threat for many communities that live along and depend on rivers. The findings also have implications for how the Arctic region will be impacted by a warming climate as permafrost thaws over time.

"KEY POINTS
• Surface ice-melt water can migrate downward driven by the osmotic pressure associated with a cryopeg, a lens of salty water below
• Overpressure can cause the frozen soil to crack resulting in mechanical explosion.."

New explanation for Siberia’s permafrost craters

Mysterious craters in the Yamal Peninsula were created by a combination of warming and osmosis.
