Constraining the Greenhouse gas emission potential of High-Arctic Peatlands in a Changing Climate

High Arctic peatlands are important components of the terrestrial carbon cycle. Studies have indicated that Svalbard peatlands are currently significant carbon sinks, but the dynamics of their carbon cycle can change over time due to factors such as permafrost thawing or peatland drying. This mak...
