Permafrost-affected tundra soils are large carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) reservoirs. However, N is largely bound in soil organic matter (SOM), ecosystems generally have low availability. Therefore, microbial induced N-cycling processes losses were considered negligible. Recent studies show that processing rates, inorganic availability, lateral from thawing permafrost increase when vegetation cover disturbed, resulting reduced uptake or increased input permafrost. In this review, we describe currently known hotspots, particularly bare patches peatland affected by thermokarst, their microbiogeochemical characteristics, present evidence for previously unrecorded hotspots the tundra. We summarize current understanding of cycling promote release potent greenhouse gas (GHG) nitrous oxide (N2O) translocation terrestrial into aquatic ecosystems. suggest certain characteristics traits can be used as indicators availability losses.

Dissolved organic matter (DOM) plays a vital role in biogeochemical processes and determining the responses of soil (SOM) to global change. Although quantity DOM has been inventoried across diverse spatio-temporal scales, underlying mechanisms accounting for variability dynamics remain unclear especially upland ecosystems. Here, gradient SOM storage 12 croplands northeast China was used understand links between dynamics, microbial metabolism, abiotic conditions. We assessed composition, biodegradability, key biodegradable components DOM. In addition, mineral-associated (MAOM) enzyme activities, oxygen availability, texture, iron (Fe), Fe-bound matter, nutrient concentrations were quantified clarify drivers quality (composition biodegradability). The proportion increased exponentially with decreasing initial concentration due larger fractions depolymerized that rich small-molecular phenols proteinaceous components.

Abstract Climate change is creating widespread ecosystem disturbance across the permafrost zone, including a rapid increase in extent and severity of tundra wildfire. The expansion this previously rare has unknown consequences for lateral nutrient flux from terrestrial to aquatic environments. Lateral loss nutrients could reduce carbon uptake slow recovery already nutrient‐limited ecosystems. To investigate effects wildfire on export, we analyzed water chemistry around 10‐year‐old Anaktuvuk River fire scar northern Alaska. We collected samples 21 burned unburned watersheds during snowmelt, at peak growing season, after plant senescence 2017 2018. After decade recovery, aboveground biomass had recovered watersheds, but overall nitrogen remained ~20% lower, active layer ~10% deeper. Despite lower organic matter stocks, dissolved were substantially elevated with higher flow‐weighted concentrations (25% higher), (59% phosphorus (65% sulfur (47% higher).

Optical surrogates, derived from absorbance and fluorescence spectra, are widely used to infer dissolved organic matter (DOM) composition (molecular weight, aromaticity) genesis (autochthonous vs allochthonous). Despite the broad adoption of optical several limitations exist, such as context- sample-specific factors. These create uncertainty about how compositional interpretations based on surrogates generalized across contexts, specifically if there is duplicative or contradictory information in those interpretations. To explore these limitations, we performed a meta-analysis for DOM diverse sources, both natural systems after water treatment processes (

Climate warming is accelerating erosion along permafrost-dominated Arctic coasts. This results in the additional supply of organic matter (OM) and nutrients into coastal zone. In this study we investigate impact on marine microbial community composition growth rates Beaufort Sea. Dissolved (DOM) derived from three representative glacial deposit types (fluvial, lacustrine, moraine) Yukon plain, Canada, were used as substrate to cultivate bacteria using a chemostat setup. Our show that DOM (inferred UV-Visible spectroscopy) biodegradability DOC concentration, bacterial production respiration) significantly differ between types. fluvial moraine clear terrestrial characteristics with low aromaticity ( S r : 0.63 ± 0.02 SUVA 254 1.65 0.06 L mg C −1 m & 0.68 0.01 1.17 , respectively) compared lacustrine soil type 0.71 2.15 0.05 ).
