Methyl-coenzyme M reductase alpha subunit (mcrA) transcripts from Arctic tundra soil near Utqiagvik, Alaska, 2018
When wet Arctic tundra soils begin to freeze in the fall, an unfrozen layer remains between the frozen surface and deeper permafrost layers. This period is known as the zero curtain, as liquid water keeps the temperature of this soil layer near 0 Celsius (C) while latent heat is gradually dissipated...

When wet Arctic tundra soils begin to freeze in the fall, an unfrozen layer remains between the frozen surface and deeper permafrost layers.

This project investigates the methanogenic Archaea that are metabolically active in the unfrozen layer during the fall zero curtain period and compares this community to that which is active in the late summer at the same depth (10-20 centimeters (cm)).
