Remote sensing of peatland degradation in temperate and boreal climate zones – A review of the potentials, gaps, and challenges

Ecological Indicators
Peatland degradation causes a number of environmental problems ranging from greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions to subsidence and ecosystem loss. Degraded peatlands, covering just 0.3 % of Earth’s land area (500,000 km2), disproportionately contribute 5 % of ...

Multi-proxy high-resolution geochemical analysis reveals ecological baselines and evaluates potential restoration trajectories in European ombrotrophic peatlands

Ecological Indicators
The application of a multi-proxy approach to evaluate ecological baselines with the purpose of analysing potential restoration trajectories in ombrotrophic bogs is limited.

Restoration of peatlands and greenhouse gas balances

, 2008
In this chapter the impact of peatland restoration on greenhouse gas fluxes is discussed based on a literature review. Casestudies are presented covering different peatland types, different regions and different starting conditions.

Policy options in peatland conservation and restoration

Mires and Peat
In 2022, the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) Global Peatlands Initiative (GPI) published the first Global Peatland Assessment (GPA) examining current knowledge on the state of a newly approximated total extent (500 million hectares) of peatlands across all seven continents.
