Climate-Responsible Management of Tropical Peatlands: The Need for Integrated MRV for Tropical Peatland Ecosystem

2021
Tropical peatlands are key ecosystem that demonstrate their effectiveness in carbon storage and sink and the high potential for mitigating climate change. They store about 30–40% of global soil carbon deposits but occupy only 3% of the world’s land surface.

Evaluation of Eco-Management of Tropical Peatlands

2021
Tropical peatlands are highly important ecosystems for storage and cycling of carbon and water and for high biomass production and biodiversity. These processes are highly dynamic due to climate change and human activity, which can cause them to become highly vulnerable and irreversible.

A Review on the Tropical Peatland Characteristics Towards Sustainability of Peatland in Malaysia

GEOGRAFI, 2023
The natural ecosystem is a dynamic relationship between living organisms and their environment. There are two types of ecosystems: natural and artificial ecosystems. Peatland is classified as a natural ecosystem. This review covers the trace and major elements, and the character of their accumulation in peat, with a particular emphasis on peat ...

Tropical Peatland of the World

2016
In the tropics peat occurs mostly in sub-coastal lowlands and is formed from rainforest trees and associated higher plants. There are regional differences in the plant species involved and there are also changes with increase in altitude with a tendency to lower growing and more low temperature tolerant plants. The best estimate of the area of tropical

Principles of Hydrological Management of Tropical Peatland

2021
Key for peatland management is a deep understanding of the hydrological processes and phenomena in peatland such as water flow in the biosphere, leaf, stem, and root. Relationships between groundwater level (GWL), rainfall, and evapotranspiration are also the key elements.

A Review of Techniques for Effective Tropical Peatland Restoration

Wetlands, 2018
Indonesia's peatlands have been subject to extensive deforestation and degradation resulting from logging, drainage, fires and conversion to other land uses. A number of restoration initiatives have been attempted to address this degradation yet, to date, there has been little coherent or rigorous reflection on the effectiveness of these interventions.

Optimizing the Multifunctionality of Tropical Peatland Ecosystem

2023
Ecosystem Services (ES) study, which initially intended to capture externalities produced by economic activity, currently has been developed and expanded into numerous global frameworks. The multidimensional approach made the ES study applicable to a wide-ranging ecosystem, including peatland.

Controls on the Carbon Balance of Tropical Peatlands

Ecosystems, 2008
The carbon balance of tropical peatlands was investigated using measurements of gaseous fluxes of carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) at several land-use types, including nondrained forest (NDF), drained forest (DF), drained regenerating forest (DRF) after clear cutting and agricultural land (AL) in Central Kalimantan, Indonesia. Soil greenhouse gas

Coexistence of Humans and Nature in Tropical Peatlands

2021
Tropical peatlands have attracted a great deal of attention due to their vast area in the tropics and their massive carbon and water stocks. At the same time, improper management of peatlands (i.e., drainage of peatlands, often resulting in large fires, carbon dioxide emissions that have a significant impact on global climate change, and health hazards
