DOI: 10.1007/s11027-018-9793-0
Abstract: Tropical wetlands such as peat swamp forests (PSFs) have been known globally as one of the carbon (C)-rich ecosystems. However, there is still a lack of understanding on the C cycle in PSFs, especially in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41467-020-14298-w
Abstract: Conversion of tropical peat swamp forest to drainage-based agriculture alters greenhouse gas (GHG) production, but the magnitude of these changes remains highly uncertain. Current emissions factors for oil palm grown on drained peat do not… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/gcb.15332
Abstract: Tropical peat forests are a globally important reservoir of carbon, but little is known about CO2 exchange on an annual basis, especially in undisturbed ecosystems. We measured CO2 exchange between the atmosphere and an undisturbed… read more here.
