Research has shown that increased summertime temperatures in the polar regions have resulted in greater degradation of soil organic carbon than had occurred during previous colder times. This effect could exacerbate global warming due to current greenhouse effect, but it could also be ameliorated by increased plant growth under warmer conditions. The role of these two processes and the extent of their interaction is not currently known. In order to help evaluate the current status of our understanding of these processes and to coordinate upcoming international investigations, an international conference, "How Nutrient Cycles Constrain Carbon Balances in Boreal forests and Arctic Tundra", will be held in Abisko Sweden.

研究表明，极地地区夏季温度的升高导致土壤有机碳的降解比以往寒冷时期更严重。 由于目前的温室效应，这种影响可能会加剧全球变暖，但也可以通过在更温暖的条件下增加植物生长来改善。 目前尚不清楚这两个过程的作用及其相互作用的程度。 为了帮助评估我们对这些过程的理解的现状，并协调即将进行的国际调查，将在瑞典阿比斯科举行一次国际会议，题为“营养循环如何限制北方森林和北极苔原的碳平衡”。
