Mapping Peatland Distribution and Quantifying Peatland Below‐Ground Carbon Stocks in Colombia's Eastern Lowlands

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 130, Issue 4, April 2025.
Abstract The extent and distribution of tropical peatlands, and their importance as a vulnerable carbon (C) store, remain poorly quantified. Although large peatland complexes in Peru, the Congo basin, and Southeast Asia have been mapped in detail, information on many other tropical areas is uncertain.

Carbon dynamics in high‐Andean tropical cushion peatlands: A review of geographic patterns and potential drivers

open access: yesEcological Monographs, Volume 94, Issue 3, August 2024.
Abstract Peatlands store large amounts of carbon (C), a function potentially threatened by climate change. Peatlands composed of vascular cushion plants are widespread in the northern and central high Andes (páramo, wet and dry puna), but their C dynamics are hardly known.

An assessment of future rewilding potential in the United Kingdom

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 38, Issue 4, August 2024.
Abstract Restoring ecosystems is an imperative for addressing biodiversity loss and climate change, and achieving the targets of the Kunming–Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework. One form of restoration, rewilding, may have particular promise but may also be precluded by requirements for other forms of land use now or in the future.

Distribución de elementos traza en el registro de la Turbera de Roñanzas (Asturias, España) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The Pb, Zn and Hg concentrations in the peat-bog samples of the Roñanzas record, that covers the last 8000 cal. BP, reveal a relationship with natural processes (climate, vulcanism) together with the atmospheric pollution linked to ancient minning ...

Net primary productivity and litter decomposition rates in two distinct Amazonian peatlands

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 30, Issue 8, August 2024.
Our understanding of carbon cycling in tropical peatlands is limited by the lack of data on forest productivity and litter decomposition. Here we present measurements from two floristically distinct Amazonian peatland forests, a palm‐dominated swamp and a thin‐stemmed hardwood swamp.
