Thesis and four first author papers:

• Elevation-based upscaling of high arctic permafrost carbon stocks (Weiss et al. in press)

• Potential decomposability in relation to geomorphology in the Siberian Yedoma region (Weiss et al. 2016)

• Detailed molecular characterisation of labile organic matter (Weiss & Kaal, in press)

• Identification of labile organic matter in upper permafrost samples from contrasting circum-arctic environments (Weiss et al. in prep)

Additional activities (selection):
