Scientists have published data on Siberian greenhouse gas emissions The journal Nature Communications has published research by scientists from TSU (Russia), Umeå University (Sweden), and Midi-Pyrenees Observatory (France). For the first time, the article provides a comprehensive assessment of carbon emissions from the surface of rivers and lakes in Siberia – one of the least studied, but largest, northern ecosystems in the world, experiencing rapid permafrost thawing. The total transport of dissolved organic carbon by all Siberian rivers to the Arctic Ocean was also analyzed, and it was found that nine times less carbon enters there than the water bodies of Siberia emit.
