An international study reveals Congo peatlands are much older than expected. The discover provide new insights to the studies on the global carbon cycle
In Southeast Asian peatlands, man-made channels to drain soil contribute to carbon leakage into the atmosphere, research says
An experiment shows that in peatlands all organic soil components decompose more rapidly when temperatures are higher
Enhanced weathering, used to facilitate the capture of atmospheric CO2 on the ground, has counterproductive effects when applied on peatlands in warmer areas, a German study has found. In these areas, in fact, carbon sequestration is offset by emission growth
The annual amount of peatlands to be restored in the British nation rises to 1,800 hectares. A move designed to counter climate change and protect biodiversity. Two emergencies that seem to be more and more evident across the U.K.
More than a quarter of the carbon stored in the Planet’s peatlands is found in the Congo River Basin, says a research released by Nature. But these environments are threatened by land use
LIFE for MIRES project halfway through its journey: the restoration of peatlands within the area offers new opportunities to tackle climate change, says the staff. Today 720 hectares of wetland soil have already returned to their original condition.
It’s time to select the aspiring land managers and their restoration. The plan, in line with UN recommendations, covers different ecosystems. Including underrated areas
In the first two decades of the century, according to a Japanese study, the forests in the area released more carbon than they stored. Fires, peatland degradation, and fossil fuels are making things worse
