Short summary

Plants draw CO₂ from the atmosphere during the growing season, while respiration releases CO₂ to the atmosphere throughout the year, driving seasonal variations in atmospheric CO₂ that can be observed by satellites, such as the Orbiting Carbon Observatory 2 (OCO-2). Using OCO-2 X_CO₂ data and space-based constraints on plant growth, we show that permafrost-rich northeast Eurasia has a strong seasonal release of CO₂ during the autumn, hinting at an unexpectedly large respiration signal from soils.
