In the Arctic, vast carbon reservoirs are preserved by cold climate conditions. Due to climate change, they are at risk of degradation, which could lead to increased levels of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. One of these reservoirs is the seabed of the East Siberian Arctic Shelf (ESAS), which ha...
