Measurements of sediments eroded by the Mackenzie River reveal the widespread export of permafrost-derived biospheric carbon that is several thousand years old, and demonstrate its burial in the Arctic Ocean, suggesting that high-latitude rivers can act as important carbon dioxide sinks., “Erosion of organic carbon in the Arctic as a geological carbon dioxide sink,” Uwekind Resource Centre, accessed October 15, 2026, https://library.uwekind.com/items/show/216.
