Monitoring of Swedish Palsas
Palsas are conspicuous and sensitive expressions of permafrost which apparently have been strongly affected by climate changes. Therefore, there is a need, from a climate change perspective, to follow their development. Since 2013 monitoring of the Swedish palsas is operational within the national environmental monitoring program.
