Metal mobilization from thawing permafrost to aquatic ecosystems is driving rusting of Arctic streams. Communications Earth and Environment 5:268, https://doi.org/10.1038/s43247-024-01446-z
These data were collected to examine how landscape dynamics, including permafrost thaw, beaver (Castor canadensis) range expansion, and metal seeps, alter macroinvertebrate communities and modify the structure of lotic food webs across Arctic riverscapes.
