摘要：In the conditions of climate warming, the thawing of permafrost can provoke the formation of new thermokarst lakes and subsidence, which facilitates the removal of organic matter from thawed peat into natural waters. Hydrochemical studies of surface waters of the Bolshezemelskaya tundra have demonstrated the exponential dependence of the physicochemical parameters on the size of the water body (peat subsidence, thaw ponds, small lakes, thermokarst lakes). The hydrochemical features of thermokarst lakes of the Bolshezemelskaya tundra are determined by high content of DOC, surface runoff and the thickness of peat deposits. Measurements of concentrations and fluxes of methane showed that all studied water bodies of the Bolshezemelskaya tundra are oversaturated with CH4, and depressions, subsidence, and small water bodies (<100 m2) are characterized by the highest concentrations of DOCs. The contribution of these small reservoirs to the total coverage of the surface of the Bolshezemelskaya tundra area is significant, and their consideration can greatly change the assessment of methane fluxes from the arctic tundra.
