Previous studies on microbial respiration responses to soil moisture have primarily focused on the influence of current moisture conditions, largely overlooking the role of antecedent soil moisture and its effects on the soil carbon (C) pool.

Abstract Introduction Freshwater ecosystem restoration must be rapidly scaled up to address climate change and biodiversity loss, as reflected in the 2024 European Union (EU) Nature Restoration Regulation. Achieving national and international restoration targets is constrained by a persistent funding gap.

Estimating the greenhouse gas emission abatement potential of tidal introduction in Australia
Abstract Introduction Coastal wetlands store higher amounts of organic carbon and sequester it at higher rates in soil relative to terrestrial ecosystems. However, they have been extensively drained, excavated, or modified, often to allow agriculture. Restoring degraded coastal wetlands can be an important contribution to climate change mitigation by ...

Facilitating new livelihoods to promote peatland restoration in Indonesia - what are the challenges for ensuring sustainable and equitable livelihood transitions? [PDF]
Much of the peatland in Central Kalimantan is highly degraded because it has been cleared and drained over the last 30–40 years. Degraded peatland is highly susceptible to burning and oxidation and contributes 30–60 % of the annual greenhouse gas ...

The Aquatic warbler (Acrocephalus paludicola) is the rarest songbird of continental Europe and a fen mire specialist. The systematic drainage in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries resulted in the loss of almost all fen mires in the breeding range. In our conservative and cautious estimate, we assume that the total historical population was around ...

This study investigates the effects of adding micro-sized alumina particles and self-rewetting fluids (n-butanol at 6 wt%, n-pentanol at 2 wt%, and n-hexanol at 0.6 wt%) to distilled water (DW) on the thermal performance of a two-phase closed ...

More field-based carbon monitoring of tropical peatland restoration is urgently needed: findings from a systematic literature review [PDF]
The tropical peatland degradation crisis in Southeast Asia has triggered a surge in peatland restoration activity to reduce carbon emissions caused by biological oxidation of dry peat and recurrent peat fires.

Rewet without regret? Nutrient dynamics in fen peat exposed to different rewetting degrees
Abstract All over the world, peatlands have been drained, often for agricultural purposes, resulting in CO2 emissions, soil subsidence and biodiversity loss. To combat these negative effects, drained peatlands are being rewetted, but knowledge of the effects of rewetting on peat biogeochemistry is still incomplete, especially since a variety ...

Rewetting of a hot surface by a falling liquid film
Abstract An experimental study is made on rewetting of a hot stainless steel tube by a Freon 113 liquid film at atmospheric pressure. The effects of liquid film flow rate, initial wall temperature and wall thickness on the wet front velocity are presented.

Climate benefits of wetland restoration are constrained by slow vegetation recovery
Abstract Introduction Wetland restoration is widely used to enhance ecosystem resilience, biodiversity, and climate mitigation. However, restoring hydrology may not lead to rapid vegetation establishment or reduced greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in severely degraded wetlands.
