A Strong Mitigation Scenario Maintains Climate Neutrality of Northern Peatlands
Resource
Northern peatlands store 300–600 Pg C, of which approximately half are underlain by permafrost. Climate warming and, in some regions, soil drying from enhanced evaporation are progressively...
Biogeochemical Response to Vegetation and Hydrologic Change in an Alaskan Boreal Fen Ecosystem
Resource
Boreal peatlands store approximately one third of the earth’s terrestrial carbon, locked away in currently waterlogged and frozen conditions. Peatlands of boreal and arctic ecosystems are affected...

Peat Loss Collocates with a Threshold in Plant–Mycorrhizal Associations in Drained Peatlands Encroached by Trees
Resource
Drainage-induced encroachment by trees may have major effects on the carbon balance of northern peatlands, and responses of microbial communities are likely to play a central mechanistic role. We...
Restoring Drained Peatlands: A Necessary Step to Achieve Global Climate Goals
Resource
Peatlands cover about 400 million hectares (ha), or 3% of the land surface of our planet. Yet they store more carbon, more effectively and for longer periods, than any other ecosystem on land. Intact...
The Biophysical Climate Mitigation Potential of Boreal Peatlands During the Growing Season
Resource
Peatlands and forests cover large areas of the boreal biome and are critical for global climate regulation. They also regulate regional climate through heat and water vapour exchange with the...
