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 …

Large quantities of organic carbon are stored in frozen soils (permafrost) within Arctic and
sub-Arctic regions. A warming climate can induce environmental changes that accelerate …

Streams and rivers can substantially modify organic carbon (OC) inputs from terrestrial
landscapes, and much of this processing is the result of microbial respiration. While carbon …

Recent warming in the Arctic, which has been amplified during the winter 1, 2, 3, greatly
enhances microbial decomposition of soil organic matter and subsequent release of carbon …

Permafrost thaw liberates frozen organic carbon, which is decomposed into carbon dioxide
(CO2) and methane (CH4). The release of these greenhouse gases (GHGs) forms a positive …

The modification of soil organic matter (SOM) decomposition by plant carbon (C) input
(priming effect) represents a critical biogeochemical process that controls soil C dynamics …

Input of labile carbon may accelerate the decomposition of existing soil organic matter
(priming effect), with the priming intensity depending on changes in soil nitrogen availability …

Temperature sensitivity (Q 10) of soil organic matter (SOM) decomposition is a crucial
parameter for predicting the fate of soil carbon (C) under global warming. However, our …

Knowledge of soils in the permafrost region has advanced immensely in recent decades,
despite the remoteness and inaccessibility of most of the region and the sampling limitations …

Peatlands represent large terrestrial carbon banks. Given that most peat accumulates in
boreal regions, where low temperatures and water saturation preserve organic matter, the …
