Soils associated with wet and ephemerally wet environments, ie wet soils, cover an area
greater than 12.1 million km 2; inland wetlands deliver at least Int $27.0 trillion in tangible …

Tropical peatlands function as substantial carbon sinks, but are susceptible to the impact of
global climate changes (especially drought) and drainage. The effects of drought and …

This study analyses long-term water quality data from an upland peat catchment in order to
understand long-term changes in hydrological flowpaths and how they relate to recovery …

Climate warming and human impacts are thought to be causing peatlands to dry, potentially
converting them from sinks to sources of carbon. However, it is unclear whether the …

Climate change models predict changes in precipitation patterns over the next several
decades for northern temperate regions. Resulting fluctuations of the water level may …

The frequency and intensity of drought is projected to increase within the boreal region
under future climatic conditions. Peatlands are widely considered to regulate water loss …

Hydropedological units are of critical importance in modulating catchment response in terms
of storage and flux dynamics under changing hydrological conditions. We examined the …

Permafrost peatlands are found in high-latitude regions and store globally-important
amounts of soil organic carbon. These regions are warming at over twice the global average …

Drought conditions are expected to increase in frequency and severity as the climate
changes, representing a threat to carbon sequestered in peat soils. Downstream water …

Virtually all types of natural hazard occur in drylands, but climate hazards assume a greater
relative importance in these highly dynamic environments. Here, we present a review of …
