Quality not quantity: organic matter composition controls of CO₂and CH₄fluxes in neotropical peat profiles [PDF]
Tropical peatlands represent an important source of carbon dioxide (CO₂) and methane (CH₄) to the atmosphere. However, we do not know where in the peat profile these gases are produced and how controlling factors, such as substrate quality, which can ...
