Porewater δ 13 C DOC indicates variable extent of degradation in different talik layers of coastal Alaskan thermokarst lakes
Thermokarst lakes play an important role in permafrost environments by warming and insulating the underlying permafrost. As a result, thaw bulbs of unfrozen ground (taliks) are formed. Since these taliks remain perennially thawed, they are zones of increased degradation where microbial activity and...
