The authors proposed new principal approach of permafrost mapping by using both mean annual ground temperature and aridity, this is new and very creative. This first hand data and information would definitely make the mapping of permafrost and active layer thickness more accurate and reliable. The authors probably compiled the most up-to-date dataset for permafrost and active layer thickness available worldwide. I do not insist on following my advice, leaving the choice to the authors of the manuscript. ![]() In my opinion, the gradations of average annual temperatures should be chosen according to generally accepted classifications of types of seasonal freezing and thawing of rocks: transitional (-1 - 0), semi-transitional (-2 -1), long-term stable (-5 -2), stable (-10 - 5), arctic (-15 -10) and polar (-20 -15). Choose a different shade for the color of the "lake". You should choose a different color for the "lake" Also, the color of the "lake" repeats the color "-10…-9 -9 -8". 2 contours of the "lake" are missing.? They are present in the following figures. The authors of the manuscript have done a lot of work on mapping the thermal state of the permafrost in the Northern Hemisphere: the average annual soil temperature (MAGT) at a depth of zero annual amplitude (ZAA) and the thickness of the active layer (ALT), zoning of permafrost based on hydrothermal conditions with a resolution of 1 km per period 2000-2016 The results obtained undoubtedly enrich the previously obtained data of previous researchers and have been successfully mapped on a global scale (the entire northern hemisphere), they can also be mapped at the local (regional) level, as the most demanded in practice. ![]()
