Quantity, origin and degradation state of organic matter in subsea permafrost on the East Siberian Arctic shelf

Based on a unique set of three drill cores, we characterize the quantity, origin and degradation state of organic matter through the subsea permafrost with higher resolution across the current thaw front, to improve our understanding of its vulnerability to decomposition upon thaw.
