Li and U Isotopes as a Potential Tool for Monitoring Active Layer Deepening in Permafrost Dominated Catchments
Permafrost in the Arctic is decreasing in extent and the depth of the seasonally thawed layer, the active layer, is increasing. Increased exposure to water is increasing fluxes of organic and inorganic solutes with potential impacts for the global carbon cycle and downstream ecosystems. Understandin...
