Microbial responses to the biostimulation of Subartic hydrocarbon-contaminated soil under seasonal freeze-thaw conditions

Nutrient-deficient, acidic soil from Resolution Island, Nunavut was contaminated with petroleum hydrocarbons during operations from 1954-1973 at a former radar station. Two mesocosm tanks containing ~200 kg hydrocarbon-contaminated Resolution Island soil each were exposed to a seasonal freezing prof...
