The significance of organic carbon and nutrient export from peatland-dominated landscapes subject to disturbance, a stoichiometric perspective [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The terrestrial-aquatic interface is a crucial environment in which to consider the fate of exported terrestrial carbon in the aquatic system. Here the fate of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) may be controlled by nutrient availability.

Distribution of Carbon Stocks in Peat Bottom Based on Thickness Class in Pelalawan Village (Riau Province, Indonesia)

open access: yes, 2022
As is well known, tropical peatlands are deposits of terrestrial organic carbon of global importance. It is estimated that around 15% of carbon is stored in peatlands worldwide.

Peatlands Are More Beneficial if Conserved and Restored than Drained for Monoculture Crops

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2021
Peatlands are especially important but fragile tropical landscapes. The importance of peatlands is owing to their ability to 1) sequester a considerable amount of terrestrial carbon, 2) store freshwater, and 3) regulate floods during the rainy season ...

Towards ecosystem-based restoration of peatland biodiversity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Natural peatlands support rich biological diversity at the genetic, species, ecosystem and landscape levels. However, because the character of this diversity differs from that of other ecosystem types, the value of peatlands for biodiversity has often ...

Peatland restoration in Norway – evaluation of ongoing monitoring and identification of plant indicators of restoration success

open access: yes, 2023
<p>Norway launched a national action plan on wetland restoration in 2016. So far, 90% of the restoration effort has been on peatland restoration, with about 140 mires restored so far. There are three main restoration goals stated in the action plan:

Trust and Transformation: Institutional Complexity in Carbon Market Adoption in Emerging Economies' Land‐Based Private Sectors

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite global commitments under the Paris Agreement, empirical evidence on the involvement of the land‐based private sector of emerging economies in carbon trading remains limited. The study analyses how behavioural factors and institutional complexities influence the involvement of the land‐based private sector in carbon trading in Indonesia.

Coherence Between Climate and Land Use Policies of the European Union, Brazil, and Indonesia: A Primer to Analyze Potential GHG Leakage

open access: yesEnvironmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Incoherence between national land use policies may weaken climate mitigation efforts by creating conditions under which agricultural and forestry production and GHG emissions are displaced across borders (leakage). Coherence depends on constellations and prioritization of national policy aims in land use (production) and climate (conservation).

ROPES Reveals Past Land Cover and PPEs From Single Pollen Records

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2018
Quantitative reconstructions of past vegetation cover commonly require pollen productivity estimates (PPEs). PPEs are calibrated in extensive and rather cumbersome surface-sample studies, and are so far only available for selected regions.
