Abstract: Abstract We restored small downstream sections of forestry-drained peatland catchments for use as wetland buffer areas and studied the effects of their restoration on the exports of nitrogen, phosphorus, dissolved organic carbon, and dissolved aluminium… read more here.

Rewetting Offers Rapid Climate Benefits for Tropical and Agricultural Peatlands But Not for Forestry‐Drained Peatlands

DOI: 10.1029/2019gb006503
Abstract: Peat soils drained for agriculture and forestry are important sources of carbon dioxide and nitrous oxide. Rewetting effectively reduces these emissions. However, rewetting also increases methane emissions from the soil and, on forestry‐drained peatlands, decreases… read more here.

DOI: 10.5194/bg-17-4769-2020
Abstract: Abstract. Drained peatlands are one of the main sources of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions globally. Emission reduction and, more generally, ecosystem restoration can be achieved by raising the water table using canal or drain blocks.… read more here.
