Abstract The paper introduces a new vision advanced by the recent project, Arctic People and Animal Crashes: Human, Climate and Habitat Agency in the Anthropocene (2014–2015) developed at the...
Large Stocks of Peatland Carbon and Nitrogen are Vulnerable to Permafrost Thaw
Resource
Northern peatlands have accumulated large stocks of organic carbon (C) and nitrogen (N), but their spatial distribution and vulnerability to climate warming remain uncertain. Here, we used machine...
Near-surface Controls on Peatland Hydrology: Implications for Rapid Disturbance Adaptation and Enhanced Resilience to Disturbance
Resource
Northern peatlands faced compounding disturbances that transformed such critical ecosystems from long-term carbon sinks into carbon sources. Considerable investment is therefore directed for restoring...
