A long-term study of peat subsidence due to afforestation and drainage
Afforestation of peatland causes the ground surface to subside. This has important implications for forestry, particularly for drainage design...
Forest regeneration in cutovers on drained fens in Lithuania
The objective of this study is to identify direct and indirect factors causing weak forest regeneration and poor growth...
Splitting the water balance of drained peatland forests into hydrological components
Drainage is a prerequisite for a successful forest production in peatlands and ditch network maintenance is performed to sustain...
Effects of drainage and forest management practices on hydraulic conductivity of wetland soils
Continuous records of water table elevations and flow rates from drained forested lands were analysed to determine field effective...
Impact of Drainage and Restoration on Vegetation and Carbon Gas Dynamics in Central European Peatlands
Theme X. Peatland carbon budgets and greenhouse gas (GHG) fluxes SUMMARY We studied the impact of drainage and restoration...
First Results of CH4 Measurements from Pristine, Drained and Restored Spruce Swamp Forests in Southern Finland
Theme X. Peatland carbon budgets and greenhouse gas (GHG) fluxes SUMMARY CH4 emissions were measured using a closed-chamber discrete...
The Effect of Wood Ash on Soil CO2 Emission and Carbon Stock of Tree Stand on a Drained Peatland – Case Study
Theme X. Peatland carbon budgets and greenhouse gas (GHG) fluxes SUMMARY Forested peatlands contain large pools of terrestrial carbon....
Greenhouse Gas Emissions from a Plantation on Thick Tropical Peat
Theme IX. Tropical peatlands SUMMARY Peat surface CO2, CH4 and N2O emissions, groundwater table depth and peat temperature were...
Subsidence as an Accurate Measure of Carbon Loss in Drained Peatlands in SE Asia
Theme IX. Tropical peatlands SUMMARY Peatland surface subsidence has long been used as a measure of carbon loss throughout...
Subsidence in Drained Coastal Peatlands in SE Asia: Implications for Sustainability
Theme IX. Tropical peatlands SUMMARY Drainage of peatlands leads to subsidence. This often eventually leads to gravity drainage and...
