Editorial: Organic carbon pools in permafrost regions on the Qinghai–Xizang (Tibetan) Plateau
The current Northern Circumpolar Soil Carbon Database did not include organic carbon storage in permafrost regions on the Qinghai–Xizang (Tibetan) Plateau (QXP). In this study, we reported a new estimation of soil organic carbon (SOC) pools in the permafrost regions on the QXP up to 25 m depth using...

The present study demonstrates that the total organic carbon storage is about 1832 Pg in permafrost regions on northern hemisphere.
