Carbon to Climate Change
... A second mechanism for incorporating soil C into permafrost is cryoturbation, the mixing of soil layers in response to repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Cryoturbation can redistribute organic C away from the surface to greater depth in the soil profile (figure 3c; Michaelson et al, 1996). The most common ...
