Drivers of soil nitrogen availability and carbon exchange processes in a High Arctic wetland
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Increased soil nutrient availability, and associated increases in vegetation productivity, could create a negative feedback between Arctic ecosystems and the climate system, thereby reducing the contribution of Arctic ecosystems to future climate change. To predict whether this feedback will develop, it is important to understand the environmental controls over nutrient cycling in High Arctic ecosystems and their impact on carbon cycling processes. Here, we examined the environmental controls over soil nitrogen availability in a High Arctic wet sedge meadow and how abiotic factors and soil nitrogen influenced carbon dioxide exchange processes. The importance of environmental variables was consistent over the 3 years, but the magnitudes of their effect varied depending on climate conditions. Ammonium availability was higher in warmer years and wetter conditions, while drier areas within the wetland had higher nitrate availability. Carbon uptake was driven by soil moisture, active layer depth, and variability between sampling sites and years ( R 2 = 0.753), while ecosystem respiration was influenced by nitrogen availability, soil temperature, active layer depth, and sampling year ( R 2 = 0.848). Considered together, the future carbon dioxide source or sink potential of high latitude wetlands will largely depend on climate-induced changes in moisture and subsequent impacts on nutrient availability.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
