Compositional clues to sources and sinks of terrestrial organic matter transported to the Eurasian Arctic shelf

Compositional clues to sources and sinks of terrestrial organic matter transported to the Eurasian Arctic shelf

The amount of organic carbon (OC) present in Siberian Arctic permafrost soils is estimated at twice the amount of carbon currently in the atmosphere. The shelf seas of the Arctic Ocean receive large amounts of this terrestrial OC from Eurasian Arctic rivers and from coastal erosion. Degradation of t...
