To assess whether rewetting peatlands can mitigate extreme rainfall events and ensure water security in a future climate, we measured event-based runoff responses before and after rewetting using a BACI approach (before-after and control-impact) within a replicated, catchment scale study ...
Peatlands are strategic areas for climate change mitigation because of their matchless carbon stocks. Drained peatlands release this carbon to the atmosphere as carbon dioxide (CO). Peatland rewetting effectively stops these COemissions, but also re-establishes the emission of methane (CH). ...

Peatlands are effective carbon sinks as more biomass is produced than decomposed under the prevalent anoxic conditions. Draining peatlands coupled with war
1]Year-round flooding provides a common land management practice to reestablish the natural carbon dioxide (CO2) sink function of drained peatlands. Here we present eddy covariance measurements of net CO2 exchange from a temperate fen during three consecutive growing seasons (May鈥揙ctober) that ...
peat ecosystems, here we aimed to use high-throughput marker gene sequencing to identify the proportion of the microbial biosphere which is affected by drought and rewetting in bogs and fens, two habitats which are repre- sentative of the majority of temperate peatlands in the Northern ...
fens (minerotrophic peatlands) with nitrate-contaminated agricul- tural runoff is an effective strategy to restore degraded fens and reduce NO 3 − fluxes (Trepel and Palmeri, 2002; Kieckbusch and Schrautzer, 2007). In this paper, we evaluate the effects of this ...
Natural peatlands are important carbon sinks and sources of methane (CH4). In contrast, drained peatlands turn from a carbon sink to a carbon source and po... M Vanselow-Algan,SR Schmidt,M Greven,... - 《Biogeosciences Discussions》 被引量: 27发表: 2015年 ...
Here we report that the annual N2O-N emissions from European managed peatlands (EU-28) sum up to approximately 145 Gg N year1. From the viewpoint of greenhouse gas emissions, highly degraded agriculturally used peatlands should be rewetted first to optimally reduce cumulative N2O-N emissions....
Planning hydrological restoration of peatlands in Indonesia to mitigate carbon dioxide emissions In this study we present a strategy for improved planning of rewetting measures by dam constructions. The study area is a vast peatland with limited ... Julia,Jaenicke,Henk,... - 《Mitigation & Adaptat...
