This project investigates the release of organic carbon from thawing permafrost in the Arctic, focusing on how this process contributes to greenhouse gas emissions and affects the carbon cycle. It employs a multi-scale approach to quantify decomposition and burial rates of organic carbon.
As the Arctic permafrost region warms, its large organic carbon (OC) pool becomes vulnerable to decomposition.
This generates greenhouse gases (GHG) that in turn fuel increased surface warming: the permafrost carbon feedback.
Higher temperatures will jump-start the coupling between the carbon and hydrological cycle, allowing for the introduction of previously frozen OC pools in aquatic systems.
This lateral, or horizontal, aquatic flux remains largely unknown in contrast to the relatively well-s…
