Browning of surface waters, as a result of increasing dissolved organic carbon and iron
concentrations, is a widespread phenomenon with implications to the structure and function …

Water quality is generally high in watercourses draining forested areas. However, forest
management can lead to detrimental effects on water quality and the aquatic environment …

The total emission mitigation potential achievable by the year 2030, calculated based on
sectoral assessments, is sufficient to reduce global greenhouse gas emissions to half of the …

Boreal peatlands store a disproportionately large quantity of soil carbon (C) and play a
critical role within the global C-climate system; however, with climatic warming, these C …

Inland waters play an active role in the global carbon cycle and emit large volumes of the
greenhouse gases (GHGs), methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2). A considerable body …

Freshwaters of the boreal and temperate regions have experienced increased browning
during the last decades. Browning, or brownification, is mostly driven by increased organic …

Wetland habitats are changing under multiple anthropogenic pressures. Nutrient leakage
and pollution modify physico‐chemical state of wetlands and affect the ecosystem through …

Continuous cover management on peatland forests has gained interest in recent years, in
part because the tree biomass with significant evapotranspiration capacity retained in …

Increasing anthropogenic pressures have affected the status of surface freshwater
ecosystems. Eutrophication, water browning, acidification, and several other processes may …

Extensive use of drainage ditches in European boreal forests and in some parts of North
America has resulted in a major change in wetland and soil hydrology and impacted the …
