The VULCAN project investigates the vulnerability of soil organic matter in permafrost and dryland ecosystems to climate change. It aims to understand how warming affects carbon release and ecosystem functioning using unique field experiments.
Soil organic matter provides essential ecosystem services and is one of the largest C reservoirs on Earth, holding more than three-fold as much C as does the atmosphere.
Over 75% of the global soil organic C pool is stored in permafrost and dryland regions, both under high pressure due to climate change.
In particular, global warming may accelerate soil organic matter decomposition in these ecosystems, which may dramatically endanger their functioning and worsen climate change by releasing signi…
