Abrupt permafrost thaw triggers microbial bloom and grazer succession

M. Scheel, A. Zervas, R. Rijkers, A. T. Tveit, F. Ekelund, F. C. Jimenez, C. S. Jacobsen, T. R. Christensen

The paper describes a microbial bloom and its controls, including bacterial and microeukaryotic predators, in recently thawed permafrost using total RNA from an up to 26500-year-old site.

Community adaptation to temperature explains abrupt soil bacterial community shift along a geothermal gradient on Iceland

J. Weedon, E. Baath, R. Rijkers, S. Reischke, B. D. Sigurdsson, E. Oddsdottir, J. van Hal, R. Aerts, I. Janssens, P. van Bodegom

The paper examines how soil bacterial communities adapt to temperature changes along a geothermal gradient in Iceland, finding a threshold response where community composition and temperature adaptation shift abruptly above 6-9°C warming.

Anaerobic methanotrophic communities thrive in deep submarine permafrost

M. Winkel, J. Mitzscherling, P. P. Overduin, F. Horn, M. Winterfeld, R. Rijkers, M. N. Grigoriev, C. Knoblauch, K. Mangelsdorf, D. Wagner, S. Liebner

This study identifies anaerobic methanotrophic communities in submarine permafrost and estimates their methane consumption rates, suggesting active AOM in thawing permafrost.
