Eléonore du Bois d’Aische, prized IASC early career researcher grant for oral communication at the IASC, Vienna, February 2023 on “Combining geochemical and geophysical parameters to characterize permafrost degradation at Abisko, Sweden: implications for iron-organic carbon interactions”.
Catherine Hirst and the WeThaw team just published in Communications Earth & Environment (Nature group Journal) their findings about the evidence for winter biogeochemical connectivity in permafrost soils. How did the team made this finding? Check “Behind the paper“.
The goal of LIFTHAW is to provide a comprehensive assessment of the nutrient mobility response in permafrost regions subject to thawing. The project is funded by BELSPO (2023-2025).
