Map** and monitoring peatland conditions from global to field scale
Abstract Peatlands cover only 3–4% of the Earth's surface, but they store nearly 30% of
global soil carbon stock. This significant carbon store is under threat as peatlands continue …

[HTML][HTML] Peatland dynamics: A review of process-based models and approaches
Despite peatlands' important feedbacks on the climate and global biogeochemical cycles,
predicting their dynamics involves many uncertainties and an overwhelming variety of …

Peatland restoration pathways to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions and retain peat carbon
Peatlands play a crucial role in the global carbon (C) cycle, making their restoration a key
strategy for mitigating greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and retaining C. This study …

Wetter is better: rewetting of minerotrophic peatlands increases plant production and moves them towards carbon sinks in a dry year
Peatlands are effective carbon sinks as more biomass is produced than decomposed under
the prevalent anoxic conditions. Draining peatlands coupled with warming releases stored …

Linking 16S rRNA Gene Classification to amoA Gene Taxonomy Reveals Environmental Distribution of Ammonia-Oxidizing Archaeal Clades in Peatland Soils
ABSTRACT A highly resolved taxonomy for ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) based on the
alpha subunit of ammonia monooxygenase (amoA) was recently established, which …

[HTML][HTML] Danish wetlands remained poor with plant species 17-years after restoration
For more than two decades, wetland restoration has been successfully applied in Denmark
as a tool to protect watercourses from elevated nutrient inputs from agriculture, but little is …

Decomposition of lignin and carbohydrates in a rewetted peatland: a comparative analysis of surface water and anaerobic soil layers
J Reuter, H Reuter, D Zak - Biogeochemistry, 2024 - Springer
The rewetting of long-term drained peatlands leads to the development of eutrophic shallow
lakes, gradually inhabited by reed communities. These shallow lakes are characterized by …

Unraveling microbial processes involved in carbon and nitrogen cycling and greenhouse gas emissions in rewetted peatlands by molecular biology
Restoration of drained peatlands through rewetting has recently emerged as a prevailing
strategy to mitigate excessive greenhouse gas emissions and re-establish the vital carbon …

Plant roots but not hydrology control microbiome composition and methane flux in temperate fen mesocosms
The rewetting of formerly drained peatlands can help to counteract climate change through
the reduction of CO 2 emissions. However, this can lead to resuming CH 4 emissions due to …

Denitrification is not Necessarily the Main Source of N2O from Rewetted Fens
J Berendt, N Wrage-Mönnig - Journal of Soil Science and Plant Nutrition, 2023 - Springer
Drained agricultural peatlands are being increasingly rewetted for global warming
mitigation. This creates novel ecosystems, with unclear effects on nitrogen cycling …
