Permafrost Expedition in Alsaka: Autumn 2023 and Winter 2024

What are the consequences of permafrost thaw for carbon fluxes as a function of seasonal changes in (i) biogeochemical processes, (ii) mineral-organic carbon interactions, (iii) ecosystem functioning and (iv) atmospheric conditions. This is what the Permafrost Team of UCLouvain is investigating thro...

Description
Summary:What are the consequences of permafrost thaw for carbon fluxes as a function of seasonal changes in (i) biogeochemical processes, (ii) mineral-organic carbon interactions, (iii) ecosystem functioning and (iv) atmospheric conditions. This is what the Permafrost Team of UCLouvain is investigating through field-based research at Eight Mile Lake in Alaska, USA, crossing geochemistry with collaborations in geophysics, geomatics & climatology.
