Qinghai–tibetan plateau peatland sustainable utilization under anthropogenic disturbances and climate change [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Often referred to as the “Third Pole,” China's Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau developed large amounts of peatland owing to its unique alpine environment. As a renewable resource, peat helps to regulate the climate as well as performing other important functions.

Aquatic and Littoral Successions in Various Post‐Mining Sites—Patterns and Possible Use in Ecological Restoration

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 9, Page 3842-3852, 30 May 2026.
ABSTRACT Vegetation succession in aquatic and littoral habitats has received much less attention than terrestrial habitats have. We sampled differently aged successional stages at five different types of post‐mining sites, that is, sandpits, stone quarries, clay quarries, brown coal spoil heaps and black coal subsidences, across the Czech Republic ...

Catchment Influences on Carbon Stable Isotope Variation in Trout; Might It Be Methane?

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Trout stable carbon isotope values vary significantly and appear to relate to catchment characteristics. Low carbon stable isotope values are linked to catchments with low drainage soil and high cover of pasture land use. This is likely to be linked to high levels of methane‐derived carbon entering the stream food web.

Sphagnum-associated methanotrophs : a resilient CH4 biofilter in pristine and disturbed peatlands [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Boreal peatlands are highly important sinks for carbon (C). This function is enabled largely by one peat-forming plant, the Sphagnum moss. In addition to slowing the decomposition by gradually creating ombrotrophic conditions, it gives a shelter for the ...

Spatial Layout of Trees on Farms Influences Magnitude and Timing of River Flow Peak

open access: yesHydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 5, May 2026.
Effectiveness of agroforestry as a lowland NFM strategy is spatially modelled for a range of planting layouts. Peak flow for a 10‐year storm was attenuated by 2.6% and delayed by 19 min with just 0.6% catchment tree coverage under riparian planting alone. Increasing coverage provided a strongly diminishing return in flood peak attenuation.

How can ecosystem services scenarios inform forest planning?—Seven lessons from Leanachan Forest, Scotland

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1233-1247, May 2026.
Abstract There are growing societal expectations that forests are managed for multiple benefits including carbon storage, biodiversity, health and recreation. Consequently, forest managers are increasingly expected to consider how external factors, including climate change, affect the future of their forests and the wider public benefits they provide ...

Prompt active restoration of peatlands substantially reduces climate impact

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2019
Restoration of peatlands after peat extraction could be a benefit to the climate system. However a multi-year ecosystem-scale assessment of net carbon (C) sequestration is needed.
