1. Organic carbon dynamics in the Baltic Sea : A modelling perspective
Abstract : Coastal seas constitute a link between land and the open ocean, and therefore play an important role in the global carbon cycle. Large amounts of carbon, of both terrestrial and marine origin, transit and are transformed in these waters, which belong to the more productive areas of the oceans. READ MORE

2. Molecular and isotopic characterization of terrestrial organic carbon released to (sub-)Arctic coastal waters
Abstract : Arctic soils store half of the global soil organic carbon (OC) pool and twice as much C as is currently present in the atmosphere. A considerable part of these carbon pools are stored in permafrost. READ MORE

3. Terrestrial organic carbon dynamics in Arctic coastal areas : budgets and multiple stable isotope approaches
Abstract : Arctic rivers transport 31-42 Tg organic carbon (OC) each year to the Arctic Ocean, which is equal to 10% of the global riverine OC discharge. Since the Arctic Ocean only holds approximately 1% of the global ocean volume, the influence of terrestrially derived organic carbon (OCter) in the Arctic Ocean is relatively high. READ MORE

4. Export and sources of organic carbon in the Lena River basin, Northeastern Siberia
Abstract : Permafrost areas are considered to be one of the largest terrestrial storages of carbon. In a warming climate these areas are expected to experience changes in carbon transport to rivers and the oceans due to permafrost thawing, which could enhance erosion, change water flow pathways and increase greenhouse gas emissions.

5. Production and emission of CO2 in two unproductive lakes in northern Sweden
Abstract : Unproductive lakes are one of few natural landscape compartments with net release of carbon to the atmosphere. Lakes also generally decrease the net terrestrial carbon uptake, since most of the CO2 production in unproductive lakes are derived from organic carbon produced on land (e.g. in forests). READ MORE
