Long‐term carbon and nitrogen dynamics in peatlands are affected by both vegetation
production and decomposition processes. Here, we examined the carbon accumulation rate …

Understanding the responses of the carbon-rich peatland ecosystems to past climate
change is crucial for predicting peat carbon fate in the future. Here we presented a data …

Peatlands are one of the largest biosphere carbon (C) reservoirs. Understanding the
responses of these C-rich ecosystems to past climate change will provide useful insights into …

Throughout northeast China, the widely distributed peatlands have formed a large carbon
(C) pool. However, the relationship between peatland initiation and climate controls is still …

Each year, a peatland has an annual net carbon balance (NCB), which can be positive (net
uptake), zero or negative. Over centuries to millennia, this NCB accumulates as a peat …

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 …

The development of northern high-latitude peatlands played an important role in the carbon
(C) balance of the land biosphere since the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM). At present, carbon …

The nitrogen (N) supply is limited in many peatlands, and the mineralization of organic
matter represents a major source of N to plants. The goal of this paper is to establish the …

Peatlands cover a small portion of the Earth's land surface but hold~ 30% of soil carbon (C)
globally. However, few studies have focused on the early stage of peatland development …

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 …
