A Large Amazonian Peatland Carbon Sink Was Eliminated by Photoinhibition of Photosynthesis and Amplified Ecosystem Respiration

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 13, 16 July 2025.
Abstract The fate of tropical peatland carbon cycling under environmental change is highly uncertain. We found that a palm swamp peatland in the Peruvian Amazon that was a strong annual sink for 2 years switched to carbon neutral in the absence of a major anthropogenic disturbance. We attributed the change in carbon sink strength to (a) photoinhibition
