From: Extremely wet summer events enhance permafrost thaw for multiple years in Siberian tundra

a Modelled and measured thaw depth for 2018–2020 with mean-field measurement values. Boxplots for measured thaw depths represent all individual measurements in irrigated (blue) and control (orange) plots (n = 90 per box). Centre lines represent the median, box limits represent upper and lower quartiles, whiskers represent 1.5 times the interquartile range and points represent outliers. b Modelled difference between irrigation and control scenario, smoothed with a 5-day moving average. Modelled data are only available up until the end of the meteorological record (31 July 2020).
