Peatlands are the “kidneys” of river basins. However, intensification of agriculture and forestry in Europe has resulted in the degradation of peatlands and their biodiversity (i.e., species, habitats and processes in ecosystems), thus impairing water ...

Agroforestry for restoration of degraded peatlands [PDF]
The area of degreded peatlands in Indonesia is estimated at 4.4 million ha. Currently, the degraded peatland often a source of environmental problems, including sources of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and land fires. Restoration of degraded peatlands is intended to restore the value, function and benefits of the peat ecosystem, including efforts to ...

Impacts of earthworms and their excreta on peat soil properties and bacterial community
Peatlands store 20–30 % of the global soil carbon (C). Earthworms simultaneously increase net C stabilization and net C mineralization. But little is known about the impact of earthworm invasion on the C cycling in peat soils.

Belarus Peatland Restoration Project Database [PDF]
The project ‘Restoring Peatlands and applying Concepts for Sustainable Management in Belarus’ supported by the International Climate Initiative of the German Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety implements a large scale peatland investigation and rewetting programme in Belarus (2008–2012). Huge degraded peatlands

Impacts of land use, restoration, and climate change on tropical peat carbon stocks in the 21st century: Implications for climate mitigation [PDF]
The climate mitigation potential of tropical peatlands has gained increased attention as Southeast Asian peatlands are being deforested, drained and burned at very high rates, causing globally significant carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions to the atmosphere.
