Permafrost Thaw Rate Calculator

Permafrost Thaw Rate

Estimate permafrost degradation and methane release based on temperature rise, soil type, and ice content for climate impact modeling.

Formula

Thaw Depth = Temperature Rise x 3.5 cm/year x Years; Percent Thawed = (Thaw Depth / 300) x 100; Carbon Released = Stored Carbon x % Thawed x 0.1; CO2 Equivalent = (CH4 x 28) + CO2
