Permafrost is the frozen soil found in cold regions around the world, from the Arctic to high mountain ranges. But it is starting to thaw. This has a number of implications: methane and carbon release, shifting landscapes, and major risks to ecosystems and infrastructure.

Our Earth Observation missions are tracking these hidden changes to help scientists and decision-makers take action before it’s too late.
