Climate warming in high‐latitude regions is thawing carbon‐rich permafrost soils, which can
release carbon to the atmosphere and enhance climate warming. Using a coupled model of …

Peatlands have influenced Holocene carbon (C) cycling by storing atmospheric C and
releasing methane (CH4). Yet, our understanding of contributions from the world's second …

Peatlands contain one of the largest stores of terrestrial carbon and exert a considerable
influence on the global climate cycle. However, both the magnitude of the peatland carbon …

The permafrost zone covers approximately 50% of the Canadian landmass, and ranges in
distribution from continuous coverage in the arctic to sporadic coverage further south in the …

The majority of northern peatlands were initiated during the Holocene. Owing to their mass
imbalance, they have sequestered huge amounts of carbon in terrestrial ecosystems …

Northern peatlands have cooled the global climate by accumulating large quantities of soil
carbon (C) over thousands of years. Maintaining the C sink function of these peatlands and …

Northern peatlands store 300–600 Pg C, of which approximately half are underlain by
permafrost. Climate warming and, in some regions, soil drying from enhanced evaporation …

Peatlands contain about one third of the World's terrestrial carbon (C). Due to their
increasing importance in the context of climate change various studies estimated regional …

Peatlands contain approximately a third of all soil carbon (C) globally and as they exchange
carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) copiously with the atmosphere, changes in …

Global peatlands store a very large carbon (C) pool located within a few meters of the
atmosphere. Thus, peatland‐atmosphere C exchange should be a major concern to global …
