Soil organic carbon pools in the northern circumpolar permafrost region
The Northern Circumpolar Soil Carbon Database was developed in order to determine carbon pools in soils of the northern circumpolar permafrost region. The area of all soils in the northern permafrost region is approximately 18,782 × 10 3 km 2 , or approximately 16% of the global soil area. In the northern permafrost region, organic soils (peatlands) and cryoturbated permafrost‐affected mineral soils have the highest mean soil organic carbon conte…
Vulnerability of Permafrost Carbon to Climate Change
Thawing permafrost and the resulting microbial decomposition of previously frozen organic carbon (C) is one of the most significant potential feedbacks from terrestrial ecosystems to the atmosphere in a changing climate. In this article we present an overview of the global permafrost C pool and of the processes that might transfer this C into the atmosphere, as well as the associated ecosystem changes that occur with thawing. We show that account…
Permafrost and Infrastructure in the Usa Basin (Northeast European Russia)
The relationship between permafrost conditions and the distribution of infrastructure in the Usa Basin, Northeast European Russia, is analyzed. About 75% of the Basin is underlain by permafrost terrain with various degrees of continuity (isolated patches to continuous permafrost). The region has a high level of urban and industrial development (e.g., towns, coal mines, hydrocarbon extraction sites, railway, pipelines). GIS-analyses indicate that …

Upscaling soil organic carbon estimates for the Usa Basin (Northeast European Russia) using GIS-based landcover and soil classification schemes
This study provides estimates of average soil organic carbon content for the Usa Basin in Northeast European Russia, using two independent databases and two separate upscaling tools. The results are very similar despite differences in sample size and spatial resolution. Based on the merged databases and landcover upscaling, the average carbon content in the Usa Basin is 10,7 Kg Cm−2 for the upper 30 cm soil layer, 25,5 Kg Cm−2 for a reference 1 m…
A description and classification of soils and landscapes of the lower Kolyma river, northeastern Russia
The combination of glacial history, ice‐rich parent materials, and ultra‐continental climate has produced unique soil landscapes in the Lower Kolyma River, a region representative of much of the arctic and subarctic lowlands of unglaciated western Beringia. All soils observed in the study area were underlain by permafrost. Soil development is generally controlled by available soil moisture, surface organic layer thickness, landscape position, and…
