Holocene vegetation dynamics of circum-Arctic permafrost peatlands
Vegetation shifts in circum-Arctic permafrost peatlands drive feedbacks with important consequences for peatland carbon budgets and the extent of permafrost thaw under changing... -
Methane Fluxes from Shorelines and Differing Surfaces, 2019, Big Trail Lake, Alaska (US)
This dataset provides methane fluxes from hot-spot and non-hot spot differing surfaces at Big Trail Lake (BTL) in the Goldstream Valley near Fairbanks, AK, USA. Measurements... -
Detailed pedon data on soil carbon and nitrogen for the northern permafrost region
Soils in the northern high latitudes are a key component in the global carbon cycle; the northern permafrost region covers 22% of the Northern Hemisphere and holds almost twice... -
Content of carbon isotopes (¹³C and ¹⁴C) in organic carbon pools in terrestrial Siberia
The dataset consists of one xlsx file with four sheets, listing (1) ¹³C and ¹⁴C data of litter and organic layers in northern Russia, Scandinavia, Canada and Alaska; (2) ¹³C and... -
Lake-DOC Database (PeRL-DOCv1), 1979-2017, Permafrost-Region
The pan-Arctic Permafrost-Region Lake-DOC version1 database contains surface water samples of lakes in the permafrost regions of Alaska (49.3 %), Canada (24.2 %), Greenland (3.2... -
Database of Global Peatland Extent and Carbon Stocks through the Last Glacial Cycle (130 ka to present)
We present the first synthesis of global peatland extent through the last glacial cycle (130 ka) based on >975 detailed stratigraphic descriptions from exposures, soil pits,... -
Database of Ice-Rich Yedoma Permafrost Version 2 (IRYP v2)
Ice-rich permafrost in the circum-Arctic and sub-Arctic, such as late Pleistocene Yedoma, are especially prone to degradation due to climate change or human activity. When... -
Database of Ice-Rich Yedoma Permafrost (IRYP)
We synthesized data on the circum-Arctic and sub-Arctic distribution and thickness of Yedoma for compiling a preliminary circum-polar Yedoma map. For compiling this map, we used... -
