REWETTING DESIGN FOR TROPICAL PEATLAND RESTORATION
Peatlands located in tropical climates are estimated to have an area of 11% of the total peatland on earth. The scope of tropical peatland is proportional to the significant role this ecosystem plays in the stability of the earth and everything in it.

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.

DESIGN OF SPILLWAY STRUCTURES OF PEATLAND REWETTING SYSTEMS
In summer 2010 drought and heat weather cause numerous peat fires. During two months Moscow was shrouded in acid smoke. To prevent such situations government of Moscow region decided to rewet previously drained peatlands. Peatland rewetting systems can be divided into two types. The first type is watering system based on previously used drainage system.

Abstract Introduction We examined how tropical peatland restoration initiatives have evolved over 25 years, particularly in their approach to livelihood contributions and women's participation. Objectives Using the Sustainable Livelihoods Framework (SLF), we analyze the peatland‐restoration initiatives based on project documents, examining their short‐

ABSTRACT In situ chemical oxidation (ISCO), a remediation technology for soil and groundwater contamination, utilizes oxidants that can impact the soil environment and indirectly influence soil CO2 emissions. Understanding these emissions may support more sustainable ISCO applications by enabling adjustments to treatment conditions that limit ...

Since the 1990s, many peatlands that were drained for peat extraction and agriculture in Russia have been abandoned with high CO2 emissions and frequent fires, such as the enormous fires around Moscow in 2010.

ABSTRACT The EU policy framework for nature restoration has undergone a significant change with the adoption of the Nature Restoration Regulation. Since 2022, the EU has developed a new comprehensive and continent‐wide legislation to restore degraded ecosystems and halt biodiversity loss, which came into force in August 2024 and is an integral part of ...

Abstract Historical peatland drainage resulted in surface subsidence and reduced water storage capacity (WSC), a process that can be exacerbated by climate change. We assessed the effects of rewetting on WSC using mesocosm experiments in climate chambers, field measurements, and Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) analysis.
