Permafrost coasts make up about one third of the Earth’s total coastline. As a result of accelerated climate change, whole sections of coastline rapidly thaw, and erode into the [...] now shows that large amounts of carbon dioxide are potentially being produced along these eroding permafrost coastlines in the Arctic.

Permafrost
The Arctic is warming faster than any other region on the planet. As a result, permafrost that is thousands of years old is now being lost to erosion. As measurements gathered on the Lena [...] every year, roughly 15 metres of the riverbanks crumble away. In addition, the carbon stored in the permafrost could worsen the greenhouse effect.

Lakes in the northernmost latitudes are widely considered to be a significant source of the greenhouse gas methane. In order to improve currently available climate-change projection models

To assess the concern of a permafrost carbon feedback and to develop a better understanding of future permafrost-carbon dynamics, the PETA-CARB project aims at quantifying
