Reanalysis data show an increasing trend in Arctic precipitation over the 20th century, but
changes are not homogenous across seasons or space. The observed hydroclimate …

Climate warming has inevitable impacts on the vegetation and hydrological dynamics of
high-latitude permafrost peatlands. These impacts in turn determine the role of these …

Northern boreal peatlands are important ecosystems in modulating global biogeochemical
cycles, yet their biological communities and related carbon dynamics are highly sensitive to …

Northern peatlands have accumulated large carbon (C) stocks since the last deglaciation
and during past millennia they have acted as important atmospheric C sinks. However, it is …

Testate amoebae (TA) are unicellular protozoans enclosed in a test capable of indicating a
wide variety of environmental conditions. Among others, characteristics such as short life …

Peatlands are valuable archives of information about past environmental conditions and
represent a globally-important carbon store. Robust proxy methods are required to …

The vast areas of permafrost peatlands in the West Siberian Lowland (WSL) hold a
significant amount of carbon currently at risk due to human-caused global warming. The …

High latitude organic soils form a significant carbon storage and deposition of these soils is
largely driven by climate. Svalbard, Norway, has experienced millennial-scale climate …

Carbon storage capacity of peat deposits in permafrost mires is highly sensitive to climate
change which effects might be strongly mediated by mire moisture and permafrost. Thus, it is …

Peatlands are important ecosystems for biodiversity conservation, global carbon cycling and
water storage. Hydrological changes due to climate variability have accelerated the …
