Tree Harvest Decisions Modulate the Climate Impact of Rewetting in a Low‐Productive Peatland Forest in Boreal Sweden

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 6, June 2026.
Rewetting drained boreal peatland forests is increasingly promoted as a climate mitigation strategy, yet its effects on carbon (C) and greenhouse gas (GHG) balances remain uncertain. This study quantified CO2 and CH4 fluxes over 2 years before and after rewetting in a low‐productive peatland forest, with and without tree harvest.

What Can the State of Nature Justify?

open access: yesPhilosophy &Public Affairs, Volume 54, Issue 2, Page 116-128, Spring 2026.
ABSTRACT Social contract theory is one of the most popular approaches to political justification. While the state of nature account in social contract theory is generally invoked to justify the state's authority, I argue in this paper that no extant account succeeds in doing so.

Does Palsa Thaw in Northern Finland Contribute to Remobilisation of Metals Accumulated in Peat Into Surface Waters?

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 9, Page 4230-4250, 30 May 2026.
ABSTRACT Permafrost is rapidly degrading in the sporadic zone, including palsa mires in Scandinavia. Peatlands in the area have likely accumulated heavy metals from atmospheric deposition of industrial contaminants in the wider region. As the palsa mire chemical composition is not well known, and in other permafrost regions the permafrost thaw may ...
