Summary

This dataset supports a published study on the effects of permafrost thaw on greenhouse gas fluxes and microbial activities at the Alaska Peatland Experiment (APEX), part of the Bonanza Creek LTER, in interior Alaska. The dataset includes autochamber CO2 and CH4 fluxes, net ecosystem exchange, ecosystem respiration, soil temperatures, climate data, microbial qPCR data, soil physical chemistry, soil extract chemistry, and rates of microbial activities, both from lab incubations, and rates derived from an isotope based process model.

Material Request Instructions

Requests for materials are mostly limited to archived air dried soils but in some cases long term frozen permafrost samples are available. Contact Mark Waldrop (mwaldrop@usgs.gov) or Jack McFarland (jmcfarland@usgs.gov) for information.

Purpose

The data were collected in order to understand how microorganisms and microbial activity responds to permafrost thaw, the causes for these changes, and the extent to which changes in microbial activities result in changes in soil carbon storage.
