Avoiding catastrophic climate change requires rapid decarbonization and improved
ecosystem stewardship. To achieve the latter, ecosystems should be prioritized by …

Permafrost regions at high latitudes and altitudes store about half of the Earth's soil organic
carbon (SOC). These areas are also some of the most intensely affected by anthropogenic …

The permafrost zone is expected to be a substantial carbon source to the atmosphere, yet
large-scale models currently only simulate gradual changes in seasonally thawed soil …

Soils are sources of the potent greenhouse gas nitrous oxide (N2O) globally, but emissions
from permafrost-affected soils have been considered negligible owing to nitrogen (N) …

The continental shelves of the Arctic Ocean and surrounding seas contain large stocks of
organic matter (OM) and methane (CH 4), representing a potential ecosystem feedback to …

That there is something wrong with the climate, and permafrost has something to do with it,
is a vague public notion. For the media, permafrost is now and then a source of alarming …

Observations taken over the last few decades indicate that dramatic changes are occurring
in the Arctic‐Boreal Zone (ABZ), which are having significant impacts on ABZ inhabitants …

As environmental change in the Arctic accelerates, there is a growing need to accurately
quantify the response of Arctic ecosystems throughout the year. To assess the temporal …

Climate warming can alter ecosystem carbon (C) balance and also the composition of soil
organic matter (SOM), with important local and global implications. However, the extent to …

Abstract Permafrost on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau (QTP) has been degrading in the past
decades. While the degradation may mobilize previously protected material from the …
