Paludiculture: peatland utilization to support climate change adaptation
IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2022 Abstract Tropical peatlands are one of the largest carbon-storing ecosystems in the world. Draining tropical peatland causes environmental damage including greenhouse gas emissions. Drained peat is highly susceptible to fires that increase carbon emissions into the air. Rewetting is one way to solve the problem because, to achieve a zero
