Arctic freshwater biodiversity is rapidly changing due to climate warming, resource extraction, infrastructure development, and landscape transformation. To improve understanding, predict future responses, and inform policy formulation, research needs must be clearly identified. Using a horizon scan survey, Arctic freshwater experts from government, international agencies, and Indigenous Peoples identified 77 biodiversity rese...

For many Arctic rivers and streams, climate‐driven intensification of permafrost thaw slumping is a major source of disturbance to aquatic habitats. Thaw slumps are dynamic landforms that severely increase total suspended solids (TSS) and nutrients in downstream reaches and can persist over decades. Effects may differ in magnitude as slumps cycle through periods of higher and lower activity, with expansion of retrogressive slu...
