Transformation towards the sustainable management of peatlands: A characterisation of farmers in the Teufelsmoor, Germany

open access: yesPeople and Nature
Peatland restoration through rewetting is a pivotal solution to counteract the climate crisis. Since many peatlands with the potential for rewetting are farmland, rewetting can only be achieved in collaboration with peatland farmers. However, the discord

Tree planting choices mediate wildfire damage to tropical forest restoration in eastern Madagascar

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Wildfires threaten tropical rainforest conservation and restoration around the world, and they pose a particular risk to the unique species assemblages in eastern Madagascar. Following an intense period of wildfires in 2020–2022 that impacted 33% of 46 tropical forest restoration sites installed by the non‐profit organization Green Again Madagascar ...

Conceptualizing and contextualizing “large‐scale” and “scaling‐up” ecological restoration

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Current restoration efforts are lagging behind the extent and pace of environmental degradation. This emphasizes the need and urgency to scale up ecological restoration. This study sought to understand the context of “large‐scale” and “scaling‐up” ecological restoration, that is, what it means, entails, where, and how it is implemented by ...

Joint modeling of environmental and species responses to restoration

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Restoration outcomes have often unexplained variation. As environmental variables can both affect the restoration outcome and be affected by restoration, studying the interplay between environmental and species responses can reveal reasons behind the variation.

Application of SAR to Delineate Peatland from Other Land Cover and Assess Relative Condition in Relation to Surface Moisture

open access: yesRemote Sensing
Peatland is a difficult landscape to map due to its challenging conditions. Remote sensing lends itself to mapping efforts, but can be hampered by common weather conditions in peatland locations.

Strengthening human–nature connections in agricultural landscapes through the EU Nature Restoration Regulation

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction With its 2024 Nature Restoration Regulation (NRR), the European Union (EU) aims to halt and reverse the degradation of European ecosystems by restoring 20% of its respective land and sea areas by 2030 and all ecosystems in need by 2050. By 2027, all member states will have to submit National Restoration Plans (NRPs).

Water table evaluation post the construction of canal blocks on peatland in West Kalimantan, Indonesia

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
Creating canal network is the first step to do agricultural practice in wetlands that aims to make the wetland dry. The existence of canal network affects the hydrological function of peat ecosystem in West Kalimantan which leads to drought and peatland ...

Restoration of forestry‐drained oligotrophic peatlands can bring climate change mitigation within a few decades

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Climate mitigation by peatland restoration is suggested, but data from restored forestry‐drained peatlands (FDP) is sparse. Studies using surrogate emission factors from pristine peatlands have indicated a long‐lasting warming effect of restoration of nutrient‐poor FDPs, while restoration‐specific studies are missing.

A hierarchical, multi‐sensor framework for peatland sub‐class and vegetation mapping throughout the Canadian boreal forest

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation
Peatlands in the Canadian boreal forest are being negatively impacted by anthropogenic climate change, the effects of which are expected to worsen. Peatland types and sub‐classes vary in their ecohydrological characteristics and are expected to have ...
