[HTML][HTML] Constraints on microbial communities, decomposition and methane production in deep peat deposits
Peatlands play outsized roles in the global carbon cycle. Despite occupying a rather small
fraction of the terrestrial biosphere (~ 3%), these ecosystems account for roughly one third of …

Impact of peat mining and restoration on methane turnover potential and methane-cycling microorganisms in a northern bog
Ombrotrophic peatlands are a recognized global carbon reservoir. Without restoration and
peat regrowth, harvested peatlands are dramatically altered, impairing their carbon sink …
