Temperature seasonality regulates organic carbon burial in lake by Shengfang Zhou, Hao Long, Weizhe Chen, Chunjing Qiu, Can Zhang, Hang Xing, Jingran Zhang, Liangqing Cheng, Cheng Zhao, Jun Cheng, Philippe Ciais

“…Abstract Organic carbon burial (OCB) in lakes, a critical component of the global carbon cycle, surpasses that in oceans, yet its response to global warming and associated feedbacks remains poorly understood. Using a well-dated biomarker sequence from the southern Tibetan Plateau and a comprehensive analysis of Holocene total organic carbon variations in lakes across the region, here we demonstrate that lake OCB significantly declined throughout the Holocene, closely linked to changes in temperature seasonality. …”
