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 …

[HTML][HTML] Trajectories of ecosystem change in restored blanket peatlands
Peatlands provide a range of ecosystem services but are sensitive to changes in climate and
land-use, and many peatlands globally are degraded. We analyse a large-scale, unique and …

Microbial uptake kinetics of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) compound groups from river water and sediments
Dissolved organic matter (DOM) represents a key component of carbon (C) cycling in
freshwater ecosystems. While the behaviour of bulk dissolved organic carbon (DOC) in …

Peatland contribution to stream organic carbon exports from a montane watershed
Mountains contain many small and fragmented peatlands within watersheds. As they are
difficult to monitor, their role in the water and carbon cycle is often disregarded. This study …

Experimental evidence for sustained carbon sequestration in fire-managed, peat moorlands
RH Marrs, EL Marsland, R Lingard, PG Appleby… - Nature …, 2019 - nature.com
Peat moorlands are important habitats in the boreal region, where they store approximately
30% of the global soil carbon (C). Prescribed burning on peat is a very contentious …

The potential hidden age of dissolved organic carbon exported by peatland streams
Radiocarbon (14C) is a key tracer for detecting the mobilization of previously stored
terrestrial organic carbon (C) into aquatic systems. Old C (> 1,000 years BP) may be …
