Nitrous oxide emissions from permafrost-affected soils
Soils are sources of the potent greenhouse gas nitrous oxide (N2O) globally, but emissions
from permafrost-affected soils have been considered negligible owing to nitrogen (N) …

Peatlands in the Earth's 21st century climate system
Peatlands occupy a relatively small fraction of the Earth's land area, but they are a globally
important carbon store because of their high carbon density. Undisturbed peatlands are …

Terrestrial and freshwater ecosystems and their services
Chapter 2, building on prior assessments, provides a global assessment of the observed
impacts and projected risks of climate change to terrestrial and freshwater ecosystems …

Large stocks of peatland carbon and nitrogen are vulnerable to permafrost thaw
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 …

Agricultural peatland restoration: effects of land‐use change on greenhouse gas (CO2 and CH4) fluxes in the Sacramento‐San Joaquin Delta
Agricultural drainage of organic soils has resulted in vast soil subsidence and contributed to
increased atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations. The Sacramento‐San Joaquin …

Emissions of methane from northern peatlands: a review of management impacts and implications for future management options
Northern peatlands constitute a significant source of atmospheric methane (CH 4). However,
management of undisturbed peatlands, as well as the restoration of disturbed peatlands, will …

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 …
