Imaging tropical peatlands in Indonesia using ground-penetrating radar (GPR) and electrical resistivity imaging (ERI): implications for carbon stock estimates and peat soil characterization [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2015 Current estimates of carbon (C) storage in peatland systems worldwide indicate that tropical peatlands comprise about 15% of the global peat carbon pool.

Biogeochemical indicators of peatland degradation – a case study of a temperate bog in Northern Germany [PDF]
, 2015 Organic soils in peatlands store a great proportion of the global soil carbon pool and can lose carbon via the atmosphere due to degradation. In Germany, most of the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from organic soils are attributed to sites managed as ...

Performance of Fire Risk Estimates Based on Soil Moisture of Selected Peat Land Use
E3S Web of Conferences, 2018 Each peat land used has a different vegetation that will influences peat soil moisture during dry seasons. The level of fire risk depends on peat soil moisture in every land used.

Low-lying agricultural peatland sustainability under managed water regimes [PDF]
, 2006 The combined effects of ditchwater management regime and sub-irrigation spacing on water table fluctuation have been investigated for two low lying agricultural peatlands in England, West Sedgemoor in the Somerset Moors and Methwold Fen in the Norfolk ...

Runoff production in blanket peat covered catchments [PDF]
, 2000 Although blanket peat covers many major headwater areas in Britain, runoff production within these upland catchments is poorly understood. This thesis examines runoff production mechanisms within the blanket peat catchments of the Moor House National ...

Land management (specifically controlled heather burning) as a factor controlling carbon loss from upland peat soils [PDF]
, 2009 Peatlands contain a significant proportion of the worlds’ total soil carbon, and are commonly assumed to serve as carbon sinks. There is however increasing evidence of carbon loss from peat soils, and DOC concentrations in UK rivers have increased ...

Compressibility behaviour and engineering properties of North Borneo peat soil [PDF]
, 2021 It is known that peat soil is highly compressible. A constituent of peat soil from Klias, Sabah covering a wide range of index properties of fiber contents, specific gravity, organic contents and moisture contents were subjected to one-dimensional ...

Effectivity of Soil Amelioration on Peat Soil and Rice Productivity [PDF]
Journal of Tropical Soils, 2017 Application of ameliorant on peat soil has an important role on improving fertility status of peat soil via increasing soil pH, reducing organic acids and toxic ions, and also increasing nutrients availability.
