Here we describe the molecular composition and resistance to decomposition of humic acids isolated from selected soils of the Russian Arctic and Antarctic. The degree of soil organic matter stabilization was assessed using modern instrumental methods: nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (cross p...
