Ecosystem carbon dynamics differ between tundra shrub types in the western Canadian Arctic

Shrub expansion at high latitudes has been implicated in driving vegetation ‘greening’ trends and may partially offset CO _2 emissions from warming soils. However, we do not yet know how Arctic shrub expansion will impact ecosystem carbon (C) cycling and this limits our ability to forecast changes i...
