A cautionary tale about using the apparent carbon accumulation rate (aCAR) obtained from peat cores
The carbon (C) accumulation histories of peatlands are of great interest to scientists, land
users and policy makers. Because peatlands contain more than 500 billion tonnes of C, an …

Misinterpreting carbon accumulation rates in records from near-surface peat
Peatlands are globally important stores of carbon (C) that contain a record of how their rates
of C accumulation have changed over time. Recently, near-surface peat has been used to …

Climate controls on carbon accumulation in peatlands of Northeast China
W Xing, K Bao, AV Gallego-Sala, DJ Charman… - Quaternary Science …, 2015 - Elsevier
Peatlands contain around one third of the global soil carbon (C) and play an important role
in the C cycle. In particular, the response of the productivity-decay balance to climate …

Large historical carbon emissions from cultivated northern peatlands
When a peatland is drained and cultivated, it behaves as a notable source of CO2. However,
we lack temporally and spatially explicit estimates of carbon losses from cultivated …

Massive peatland carbon banks vulnerable to rising temperatures
Peatlands contain one-third of the world's soil carbon (C). If destabilized, decomposition of
this vast C bank could accelerate climate warming; however, the likelihood of this outcome …

Peat deposits store more carbon than trees in forested peatlands of the boreal biome
Peatlands are significant carbon (C) stores, playing a key role in nature-based climate
change mitigation. While the effectiveness of non-forested peatlands as C reservoirs is …

Climate-related changes in peatland carbon accumulation during the last millennium
Peatlands are a major terrestrial carbon store and a persistent natural carbon sink during the
Holocene, but there is considerable uncertainty over the fate of peatland carbon in a …

The essential carbon service provided by northern peatlands
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 …

Lowering water table reduces carbon sink strength and carbon stocks in northern peatlands
Peatlands at high latitudes have accumulated> 400 Pg carbon (C) because saturated soil
and cold temperatures suppress C decomposition. This substantial amount of C in Arctic and …
