Published in 2024 at "Biogeochemistry"

DOI: 10.1007/s10533-023-01115-x

Abstract: Management of drained peatlands may pose a risk or a solution on the way towards climate change mitigation, which creates a need to evaluate the current state of forestry-drained peatlands, the magnitude of degradation processes… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Forest Ecology and Management"

DOI: 10.1016/j.foreco.2020.118089

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.

Published in 2020 at "Global Biogeochemical Cycles"

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.

Published in 2025 at "Nature Communications"

DOI: 10.1038/s41467-025-65841-6

Abstract: Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from drained peatlands account for about 7% of the total anthropogenic GHG emissions in the European Union (EU). Yet, a lack of high-resolution spatial data hampers targeted mitigation. We combined soil… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Biogeosciences"

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.
