Patterns of heterotrophic microbial activity in eutrophic and oligotrophic peatlands
Nutrient enrichment of peatlands may alter patterns of heterotrophic microbial activity (HMA) and organic matter cycling. The utilization of C-substrates by heterotrophic microbial communities in response to changes in environmental conditions may serve as sensitive indicators of changes in the trophic state of wetlands. The objective of this study was to measure the response of heterotrophic m...
متن کاملArctic tropospheric warming amplification?
Relative rates of temperature change between the troposphere and surface, and the mechanisms that produce these changes, have long been a contentious issue. Graversen et al., predicated upon the ERA-40 reanalysis, report polar tropospheric amplification of surface warming and attempt to explain this finding dynamically. Here we show (1) that data from satellites and weather balloons indicate th...
متن کاملHeterotrophic and autotrophic microbial populations in cold perennial springs of the high arctic.
The saline springs of Gypsum Hill in the Canadian high Arctic are a rare example of cold springs originating from deep groundwater and rising to the surface through thick permafrost. The heterotrophic bacteria and autotrophic sulfur-oxidizing bacteria (up to 40% of the total microbial community) isolated from the spring waters and sediments were classified into four phyla (Actinobacteria, Bacte...
متن کاملMicrobial Community and Functional Gene Changes in Arctic Tundra Soils in a Microcosm Warming Experiment
Microbial decomposition of soil organic carbon (SOC) in thawing Arctic permafrost is important in determining greenhouse gas feedbacks of tundra ecosystems to climate. However, the changes in microbial community structure during SOC decomposition are poorly known. Here we examine these changes using frozen soils from Barrow, Alaska, USA, in anoxic microcosm incubation at -2 and 8°C for 122 days...
متن کاملSea ice thickness and recent Arctic warming
The climatic impact of increased Arctic sea ice loss has received growing attention in the last years. However, little focus has been set on the role of sea ice thickness, although it strongly determines surface heat fluxes. Here ensembles of simulations using the EC-Earth atmospheric model (Integrated Forecast System) are performed and analyzed to quantify the atmospheric impacts of Arctic sea...
