Some studies have focused on the potential risks and economic losses caused by permafrost degradation, but these studies are usually limited to specific regions such as the Qinghai Tibet Plateau and Alaska, and the limitations of the spatiotemporal resolution of their input variables have also caused some uncertainty in quantifying permafrost degradation. Based on the thickness of the active layer in permafrost regions with a resolution of 1km; Based on the current data on underground ice content, the settlement index (Is) has been obtained as one of the risk assessment indicators for permafrost regions.
