Higher climatological temperature sensitivity of soil carbon in cold than warm climates

Abstract

Soil carbon release remains a highly uncertain climate feedback. Research now shows that the temperature control on carbon turnover is more sensitive in cold climates, supporting projections of a strong carbon–climate feedback from northern soils.
