[HTML][HTML] Impact of climate change-induced alterations in peatland vegetation phenology and composition on carbon balance
Global climate is changing faster than humankind has ever experienced. Model-based
predictions of future climate are becoming more complex and precise, but they still lack …

Drought effects on wet soils in inland wetlands and peatlands
Soils associated with wet and ephemerally wet environments, ie wet soils, cover an area
greater than 12.1 million km 2; inland wetlands deliver at least Int $27.0 trillion in tangible …

Rapid expansion of northern peatlands and doubled estimate of carbon storage
Northern peatlands are an integral part of the global carbon cycle—a strong sink of
atmospheric carbon dioxide and source of methane. Increasing anthropogenic carbon …

Rapid net carbon loss from a whole‐ecosystem warmed peatland
To evaluate boreal peatland C losses from warming, novel technologies were used to
expose intact bog plots in northern Minnesota to a range of future temperatures (+ 0° C to+ …

Rapid loss of an ecosystem engineer: Sphagnum decline in an experimentally warmed bog
Sphagnum mosses are keystone components of peatland ecosystems. They facilitate the
accumulation of carbon in peat deposits, but climate change is predicted to expose peatland …

A globally robust relationship between water table decline, subsidence rate, and carbon release from peatlands
Peatland ecosystems are globally important carbon stores. Disturbances, such as drainage
and climate drying, act to lower peatland water table depths, consequently enhancing soil …

The impacts of land‐use and climate change on the Zoige peatland carbon cycle: A review
The Zoige peatlands are the largest peatland area in China, and the largest high‐altitude
peatland in the world. As with many peatlands worldwide, degradation from land …

Effects of climate warming on Sphagnum photosynthesis in peatlands depend on peat moisture and species‐specific anatomical traits
Climate change will influence plant photosynthesis by altering patterns of temperature and
precipitation, including their variability and seasonality. Both effects may be important for …
