  1. 1. Lipid biomarkers and other geochemical indicators in paleoenvironmental studies of two Arctic systems : a Russian permafrost peatland and marine sediments from the Lomonosov Ridge

    Author : Rina Argelia Andersson; Magnus Mörth; Richard Pancost; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; lipid biomarkers; peat; permafrost; Arctic Ocean; marine sediments; geokemi; Geochemistry;

    Abstract : The reconstruction of past environmental conditions is a fascinating research area that attracts the interest of many individuals in various geological disciplines. Paleoenvironmental reconstruction studies can shed light on the understanding of past climates and are a key to the prediction of future climate changes and their consequences. READ MORE

  2. 2. Remobilization of terrestrial carbon across temporal and spatial scales deduced from the Arctic Ocean sediment record

    Author : Jannik Martens; Örjan Gustafsson; Birgit Wild; Richard Pancost; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Arctic; climate change; permafrost; carbon; paleoclimate; Applied Environmental Science; tillämpad miljövetenskap;

    Abstract : Arctic warming is expected to trigger large-scale environmental change including remobilization of terrestrial organic carbon (terrOC). Permafrost and peatland systems contain more than twice as much carbon as the atmosphere, and may upon destabilization expose large amounts of their carbon to microbial decomposition and release climate-forcing greenhouse gases (GHG).
