Arctic warming is causing permafrost thaw and release of organic carbon (OC) to fluvial systems. Permafrostderived OC can be transported downstream and degraded into greenhouse gases that may enhance climate warming. Susceptibility of OC to decomposition depends largely upon its source and compositi...
