      Warmer winters in Arctic regions may melt insulating snow cover and subject soils to more freeze– thaw cycles. The effect of freeze–thaw cycles on the microbial use of low molecular weight, dissolved organic carbon (LMW-DOC) is poorly understood. In this study, soils from the Arctic heath tundra, Arctic meadow tundra and a temperate grassland were frozen to -7.5 C and thawed once and three ...
