[HTML][HTML] After-use of peat extraction sites–A systematic review of biodiversity, climate, hydrological and social impacts
After drainage for forestry and agriculture, peat extraction is one of the most important
causes of peatland degradation. When peat extraction is ceased, multiple after-use options …

Rewetting global wetlands effectively reduces major greenhouse gas emissions
Carbon and nitrogen losses from degraded wetlands and methane emissions from flooded
wetlands are both important sources of greenhouse gas emissions. However, the net …

Multi‐year net ecosystem carbon balance of a restored peatland reveals a return to carbon sink
Peatlands after drainage and extraction are large sources of carbon (C) to the atmosphere.
Restoration, through re‐wetting and revegetation, aims to return the C sink function by re …

Carbon and climate implications of rewetting a raised bog in Ireland
Peatland rewetting has been proposed as a vital climate change mitigation tool to reduce
greenhouse gas emissions and to generate suitable conditions for the return of carbon (C) …

Effects of water level alteration on carbon cycling in peatlands
Globally, peatlands play an important role in the carbon (C) cycle. High water level is a key
factor in maintaining C storage in peatlands, but water levels are vulnerable to climate …
