Dissolved organic carbon and colour dynamics in drained and restored blanket peat [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Peatlands are important terrestrial stores of carbon and a principal source of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) to the fluvial environment. Whilst often regarded as a net carbon sink, enhanced DOC concentrations and an associated rise in the level of water

A Global Methane Observation System to Reduce Uncertainty for Anthropogenic and Natural Sources and Sinks for Detecting and Attributing Climate Feedbacks

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Conceptual illustration of a Global Ecosystem Methane Observing System (GEM‐OS) integrating satellites, aircraft, atmospheric networks, and ecosystem measurements to quantify methane emissions from anthropogenic and natural sources. The multi‐scale observing framework improves source attribution, reduces uncertainty in regional methane budgets, and ...

Effects of climate change and human activities on net primary production of wetlands on the Zoige Plateau from 1990 to 2015

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Conservation, 2022
Wetlands are vulnerable to climate change and human activities. However, the past changes caused by climate and human activities on net primary production (NPP) were unclear on the Zoige Plateau, which is on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.

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.
