Microbial activity monitoring by the Integrated Arctic Earth Observing System (MamSIOS)

Microorganisms, though already integral elements, are likely to play an increasingly import- ant role in the Earth’s climate system (Falkowski et al., 2008) and are known to affect polar biogeochemical cycles (Larose et al., 2013a). In particular, they play important roles in the generation and deco...
