How do animals affect Arctic soils in a warming climate, and how could this be used in land use management strategies? We explore this in a comprehensive way in our latest publication doi.org/10.1080/15230430.202… @RIFS_Potsdam @AWI_Media
Can animal grazing help to reduce permafrost thaw?

This new study on reindeer impact on soil carbon storage revealed that animal impacts are very different for permafrost and non-permafrost areas but facilitates more productive vegetation @PecHEc_project @AWI_de @CharterArctic Read more here: borenv.net/BER/archive/pdfs/…

While calculating carbon budgets is crucial in climate science, #ecology and its complexities can often cause some headaches. @WindirschTorben eases these by taking you into the #Arctic and shares how #reindeer can impact #permafrost there and more! blogs.egu.eu/divisions/cr/20…

Two days of flying under good weather conditions so far. And already 3.5 TB of images. Let's hope we brought enough hard drives for backups ;) Anyway, here are some impressions from the first flights 🛩️ #PermaX @AWI_Media

Supplementary feeding of #reindeer has expanded considerably across herding areas of Norway, Finland and Sweden with considerable consequences for animals and people.
