Peatlands are wetland ecosystems that accumulate dead organic matter (ie, peat) when
plant litter production outpaces peat decay, usually under conditions of frequent or …

Abstract Peatland restoration in North America (NA) was initiated approximately 25 years
ago on peat‐extracted bogs. Recent advances in peatland restoration in NA have expanded …

Conversion of tropical peatlands to agriculture leads to a release of carbon from previously
stable, long-term storage, resulting in land subsidence that can be a surrogate measure of …

Agricultural drainage of organic soils has resulted in vast soil subsidence and contributed to
increased atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations. The Sacramento‐San Joaquin …

Restoring degraded peat soils presents an attractive, but largely untested, climate change
mitigation approach. Drained peat soils used for agriculture can be large greenhouse gas …

The Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta in California was drained and converted to agriculture
more than a century ago, and since then has experienced extreme rates of soil subsidence …

Tidal wetlands produce long-term soil organic carbon (C) stocks. Thus for carbon accounting
purposes, we need accurate and precise information on the magnitude and spatial …

We present 6.5 years of eddy covariance measurements of fluxes of methane (FCH4) and
carbon dioxide (FCO2) from a flooded rice paddy in Northern California, USA. A pronounced …

The restoration of tidal wetland and seagrass systems has the potential for significant
greenhouse gas benefits, but project-level accounting procedures have not been available …

Coastal plains are amongst the most densely populated areas in the world. Many coastal
peatlands are drained to create arable land. This is not without consequences; physical …
