Peatlands are strategic areas for climate change mitigation because of their matchless carbon
stocks. Drained peatlands release this carbon to the atmosphere as carbon dioxide (CO 2 …

The growing demand for bioenergy increases pressure on peatlands. The novel strategy of
wet peatlands agriculture (paludiculture) may permit the production of bioenergy from …

Growing Sphagnum on rewetted bogs (=Sphagnum paludiculture) is an alternative to
drainage-based land use because it retains its value as productive land while mitigating …

Soils represent a major global source and sink of greenhouse gases (GHGs). Many studies
of GHG fluxes between soil, plant and atmosphere rely on chamber measurements. Different …

Many raised bogs in Central Europe are in an unfavorable state: drainage causes high
emissions of carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) and nitrous oxide (N 2 O), while rewetting may result in high …

Manual chamber campaigns are a versatile method to study management effects at plot scale
in factorial experiments. The eddy covariance technique has the advantage of continuous …

Peatland restoration is seen as an effective contribution to help achieve the aims of the Paris
Agreement because currently huge amounts of peatlands in Northern Central Europe are …

Manual closed‐chamber measurements are commonly used to quantify annual net CO 2
ecosystem exchange (NEE) in a wide range of terrestrial ecosystems. However, differences in …

Carbon (C) sequestration in soils plays a key role in the global C cycle. It is therefore crucial
to adequately monitor dynamics in soil organic carbon (ΔSOC) stocks when aiming to reveal …

Black alder (Alnus glutinosa (L.) Gaertn.) occurs naturally in temperate marshes and in
minerotrophic peatlands and is also suitable for paludiculture-the cultivation of biomass on wet or …
