Multi‐omics of the Soil Microbiome
TheArctic is characterized by vast amounts of carbon stored in permafrost and isan important focal point for the study of climate change as increasing temperature may accelerate microbially‐mediated release of carbon stored inpermafrost into the atmosphere as CO 2 and CH 4 .
