الوصف: Collapse of permafrost coasts delivers large quantities of particulate organic carbon (POC) to Arctic coastal areas. With rapidly changing environmental conditions, sediment and organic carbon (OC) mobilization and transport pathways are also changing. Here, we assess the sources and sinks of POC in the highly dynamic nearshore zone of Herschel Island‐Qikiqtaruk (Yukon, Canada). Our results show that POC concentrations sharply decrease, from 15.9 to 0.3 mg L−1, within the first 100–300 m offshore. Simultaneously, radiocarbon ages of POC drop from 16,400 to 3,600 14C years, indicating rapid settling of old permafrost POC to underlying sediments. This suggests that permafrost OC is, apart from a very narrow resuspension zone (
Key Points Suspended particulate organic carbon (POC) sharply decreases in age and concentration within the nearshore zoneBeyond a narrow resuspension zone, permafrost‐derived OC dominates surface sediments, whereas much younger OC is found in the water columnPermafrost‐derived POC is rapidly removed from the water column, showing the critical role of nearshore dynamics for OC transport
