Drained, lowland agricultural peatlands are greenhouse gas (GHG) emission hotspots and a
large but vulnerable store of irrecoverable carbon. They exhibit soil loss rates of~ 2.0 cm yr …

In the 21st century, remote sensing (RS) has become increasingly employed in many
environmental studies. This paper constitutes an overview of works utilising RS methods in …

Northern aapa mire complexes are characterized by patterned fens with flarks (wet fen
surfaces) and bog zone margins with Sphagnum moss cover. Evidence exists of a recent …

The influence of fires on the development and chemical composition of two Rheic Hemic
Histosols in the native territory of the middle taiga of the Komi Republic was estimated. The …

This systematic literature review (SLR) provides a comprehensive overview of remote
sensing (RS) applications in northern peatlands from 2017 to 2022, utilising various …

Peatland degradation causes a number of environmental problems ranging from
greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions to subsidence and ecosystem loss. Degraded peatlands …

Peat fires differ from other wildfires in their duration, carbon losses, emissions of greenhouse
gases and highly hazardous products of combustion and other environmental impacts …

Peatlands contribute to a wide range of ecosystem services. They play an important role as
carbon sinks in their natural state, but when they are drained, they cause carbon emissions …

Rewetting is the most effective way to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from
drained peatlands and must significantly contribute to the implementation of the Paris …

On examples of n× 100 m2 permanent plots laid in 2005 on peatlands disturbed by
quarrying and milling peat extraction in Meshchera National Park (central European …
