Permafrost Causes Unique Fine‐Scale Spatial Variability Across Tundra Soils
The new paper by Siewert et al. show that subsurface soil properties in permafrost tundra terrain exhibit tremendous spatial variability. They describe the subsurface variability of soil organic carbon (SOC) and ground ice content from the centimeter to the landscape scale in three typical tundra terrain types common across the Arctic region.
