Plant belowground traits indicate increased plant-mediated methane transport along a peatland permafrost thaw gradient
Permafrost thaw alters methane (CH 4 ) fluxes from subarctic peatland ecosystems. Collapsing permafrost palsas change hydrology, interstitial oxygen availability, and vegetation composition, and each of these factors contribute to net CH 4 flux by influencing CH 4 production, consumption and transport. Changes...
