Role of Permafrost in Tundra Ecosystems 
What is Permafrost? Permafrost is a
layer of frozen soil, rock, and
organic matter that remains at or below 0°C for two or more consecutive years
...
Boreal Pines The soil in Boreal Pine forests is usually thin and acidic, with a
layer of
organic material known as "duff" covering the forest floor
...
Impact of Permafrost Thawing on Ecosystems The thawing of permafrost, a
layer of soil or rock that remains frozen for two or more consecutive years, is a significant environmental issue with far-reaching implications for ecosystems around the world
...It acts as a natural freezer, preserving
organic matter and locking away greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide and methane
...
Boreal Moss Forests the boreal moss forests also plays a role in the decomposition process, as the low temperatures slow down the breakdown of
organic matter
...This results in a thick
layer of organic material, known as peat, accumulating on the forest floor over time
...
Desert Soil Formation Vegetation: The sparse vegetation in deserts provides minimal
organic matter to the soil
...Caliche Hard, cemented
layer of calcium carbonate found in arid regions with high evaporation rates
...
Vegetation and Soil Grassland soils are typically deep and fertile, with a high
organic matter content
...Podzol: A sandy, acidic soil with a thin organic
layer, found in some grasslands with coniferous trees
...
Effects of Ice Melt on Ecosystems Permafrost is a
layer of frozen soil that acts as a carbon sink, storing large amounts of
organic matter
...
Tundra Ecosystem Functions Peatlands in the tundra act as carbon sinks, storing large amounts of
organic matter that would otherwise release carbon dioxide into the atmosphere if disturbed
...Over time, the accumulation of organic matter in the tundra soil forms a thick
layer of peat, which helps to retain moisture, nutrients, and carbon
...
Effects of Permafrost Thawing on Wildlife Overview of Permafrost Thawing Permafrost is a
layer of soil, rock, and sediment that remains frozen for two or more consecutive years
...It acts as a natural freezer, preserving
organic matter and providing stability to the landscape
...
Desert Soil Characteristics Composition of Desert Soils Desert soils are typically low in
organic matter content due to the arid conditions that limit the decomposition of plant material
...The topsoil
layer, or A horizon, is often thin and contains limited organic matter
