Increasing Pleistocene permafrost persistence and carbon cycle conundrums inferred from Canadian speleothems

Permafrost carbon represents a potentially powerful amplifier of climate change, but little is known about permafrost sensitivity and associated carbon cycling during past warm intervals. We reconstruct permafrost history in western Canada during Pleistocene interglacials from 130 uranium-thorium ag...
