Soils in Arctic and boreal ecosystems store twice as much carbon as the atmosphere, a
portion of which may be released as high-latitude soils warm. Some of the uncertainty in the …

Earth's high latitudes are projected to experience warmer and wetter summers in the future
but ramifications for soil thermal processes and permafrost thaw are poorly understood …

Permafrost degradation in peatlands is altering vegetation and soil properties and impacting
net carbon storage. We studied four adjacent sites in Alaska with varied permafrost regimes …

Permafrost underlies one-quarter of the Northern Hemisphere but is at increasing risk of
thaw from climate warming. Recent studies across the Arctic have identified areas of rapid …

Permafrost soils in the northern hemisphere are known to harbor large amounts of soil
organic matter (SOM). Global climate warming endangers this stable soil organic carbon …

Lowland boreal forest ecosystems in Alaska are dominated by wetlands comprised of a
complex mosaic of fens, collapse‐scar bogs, low shrub/scrub, and forests growing on …

Floodplains accumulate and store organic carbon (OC) and release OC to rivers, but studies
of floodplain soil OC come from small rivers or small spatial extents on larger rivers in …

Understanding the processes driving terrestrial vegetation productivity dynamics in boreal
ecosystems is critical for accurate assessments of carbon dynamics. Monitoring these …

Peatlands, which account for approximately 15% of land surface across the arctic and boreal
regions of the globe, are experiencing a range of ecological impacts as a result of climate …

Increasing rates of short‐interval disturbances have the potential to rapidly transform
ecosystems via shifts in post‐disturbance regeneration. While research has explored …
