Impact of River Channel Lateral Migration on Microbial Communities across a Discontinuous Permafrost Floodplain
Abstract
Arctic lowlands contain large quantities of soil organic carbon that is currently sequestered in permafrost. With rising temperatures, permafrost thaw may allow this carbon to be consumed by microbial communities and released to the atmosphere as carbon dioxide or methane.
