Divergent patterns of experimental and model-derived permafrost ecosystem carbon dynamics in response to Arctic warming

In the last few decades, temperatures in the Arctic have increased twice as much as the rest of the globe. As permafrost thaws in response to this warming, large amounts of soil organic matter may become vulnerable to decomposition. Microbial decomposition will release carbon (C) from permafrost soi...
