Analysis of Peatland Research Trends Based on BERTopic

open access: yesLand
Peatlands comprise approximately 3% of the land area worldwide. Peatland exists in most countries, including tropical, subtropical, and boreal regions. Accordingly, peatland has garnered increased research attention as a potential countermeasure against ...

Tropical Peatland Water Table Estimations From Space

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences
AbstractTropical peatlands store copious amounts of carbon (C) and play a critical role in the global C cycle. However, this C store is vulnerable to natural and anthropogenic disturbances, leading these ecosystems to become weaker C sinks or even net C sources. Variabilities in water table (WT) greatly influence the magnitude of greenhouse gas flux in

Hydro-physical and carbon properties of peat across peatland types and climate zones

open access: yesGeoderma
The hydro-physical properties of peat play a pivotal role in regulating the water, nutrient, and carbon cycles of peatland ecosystems. However, our understanding of peat hydraulic properties remains limited, especially at a global perspective.

Mismatch Between Global Importance of Peatlands and the Extent of Their Protection

open access: yesConservation Letters
Global peatlands store more carbon than all the world's forests biomass on just 3% of the planet's land surface. Failure to address mounting threats to peatland ecosystems will jeopardize critical climate targets and exacerbate biodiversity loss.

A new data-driven map predicts substantial undocumented peatland areas in Amazonia

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters
Tropical peatlands are among the most carbon-dense terrestrial ecosystems yet recorded. Collectively, they comprise a large but highly uncertain reservoir of the global carbon cycle, with wide-ranging estimates of their global area (441 025–1700 000 km ...

Low, but gradually growing deforestation and carbon emissions from the Cuvette Centrale peatlands, 2001–2021

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters
Earth’s largest tropical peatland, first mapped in 2017, is located within an immense wetland in the Congo Basin, the Cuvette Centrale, covering 167 600 km ^2 .
