The Arctic in the Twenty-First Century: Changing biogeochemical linkages across a Paraglacial Landscape of Greenland
The Kangerlussuaq area of southwest Greenland encompasses diverse ecological, geomorphic, and climate gradients that function over a range of spatial and temporal scales. Ecosystems range from the microbial communities on the ice sheet and moisture-stressed terrestrial vegetation (and their associat...
