α-latrotoxin mechanism of action in the mammalian body

Thermokarst lake formation: 1. warming temperatures cause pockets of subsurface ice to melt; 2. melted ice thaws surrounding permafrost, leading to formation of pools of water; 3. more permafrost thaws around the smaller pools, forming larger bodies of liquid water; 4. thawed organic material in previously frozen soil begins to decompose and emit greenhouse gas; 5. increased atmospheric greenhouse gas leads to higher global temperatures, contributing to a positive feedback loop
