The Arctic terrestrial ecosystems are undergoing rapid climate change, causing shifts in the dynamics of soil nitrogen (N), a pivotal but relatively underexplored component. To understand the impacts of climate change on soil labile N pools, we performed meta- and decision-tree analyses of 391 observations from 38 peer-reviewed publications across the Arctic, focusing on experimental warming and snow addition. Soil dissolved organic nitrogen (DON), ammonium (NH₄⁺), and nitrate (NO₃^-) pools under experimental warming exhibited overall standard mean differences (SMDs) ranging from −0.08 to 0.02, with no significance (P > 0.05); however, specific conditions led to significant changes. The key determinants of soil labile N responses to warming were experimental duration and mean annual summer temperature for DON; annual precipitation, soil moisture, and sampling timing for NH₄⁺; and soil layer for NO₃^-. Snow addition significantly increased all labile N pools (overall SMD = 0.23–0.36; P < 0.05), influenced by factors such as sampling timing and vegetation type for DON; experimental duration and soil moisture for NH₄⁺; and soil pH for NO₃^-. By consolidating and reprocessing datasets, we not only showed the overall responses of soil labile N pools to climate manipulation experiments in Arctic tundra ecosystems but also identified key determinants for changes in soil N pools among environmental and experimental variables. Our findings demonstrate that warming and snow-cover changes significantly affect soil labile N pools, highlighting how the unique environmental characteristics of different sites influence terrestrial N cycling and underscoring the complexity of Arctic N dynamics under climate change.
