Under future climate change scenarios, Arctic coastal waters are believed to receive higher terrestrial organic matter (OM) fluxes. Permafrost carbon is increasingly mobilized upon thaw from rivers draining permafrost terrain and from eroding permafrost coasts. Once received, the coastal waters are...
