Study co-authored by ERG researcher featured in WaterResearch

A study co-authored by Fereidoun Rezanezhad was recently featured in WaterResearch, a communication that summarizes high impact scientific articles published by researchers of the Water Institute. The paper, titled “Winter CO₂ losses shift the Arctic to a carbon source under current and future climates,” was originally published in Nature Climate Change. The major finding of the study was that respiration during the non-growing season (NGS) represents a substantial component of the Arctic’s carbon balance, and that warming during the NGS has increased CO₂ losses, shifting the Arctic to a carbon source rather than a sink.
