Determinants of carbon release from the active layer and permafrost deposits on the Tibetan Plateau

Permafrost stores large quantities of carbon (C), but uncertainty surrounds decomposability differences between active and permafrost layers. Here, Chen et al. use incubation experiments and a 3-pool model to find permafrost layers are equally or more labile, contributing to C vulnerability in Tibet...
