Root oxygen mitigates methane fluxes in tropical peatlands (2020)
Journal Article
Girkin, N., Vane, C. H., Turner, B., Ostle, N., & Sjögersten, S. (2020). Root oxygen mitigates methane fluxes in tropical peatlands. Environmental Research Letters, 15(6), Article 064013. https://doi.org/10.1088/1748-9326/ab8495

© 2020 The Author(s). Published by IOP Publishing Ltd. Tropical peatlands are a globally important source of methane, a potent greenhouse gas. Vegetation is critical in regulating fluxes, providing a conduit for emissions and regular carbon inputs. H... Read More about Root oxygen mitigates methane fluxes in tropical peatlands.

Interactions between labile carbon, temperature and land use regulate carbon dioxide and methane production in tropical peat (2019)
Journal Article
Girkin, N. T., Dhandapani, S., Evers, S., Ostle, N., Turner, B. L., & Sjӧgersten, S. (2020). Interactions between labile carbon, temperature and land use regulate carbon dioxide and methane production in tropical peat. Biogeochemistry, 147(1), 87-97. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10533-019-00632-y

Tropical peatlands are a significant carbon store and contribute to global carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) emissions. Tropical peatlands are threatened by both land use and climate change, including the alteration of regional precipitation pat...

From peat swamp forest to oil palm plantations: The stability of tropical peatland carbon (2019)
Journal Article
Cooper, H. V., Vane, C. H., Evers, S., Aplin, P., Girkin, N. T., & Sjögersten, S. (2019). From peat swamp forest to oil palm plantations: The stability of tropical peatland carbon. Geoderma, 342, 109-117. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.geoderma.2019.02.021

Accurate assessment of tropical peatland carbon dynamics is important to (a) determine the size of the active carbon pool, (b) estimate the scale of transfers of peat-derived greenhouse gases (GHGs) to the atmosphere resulting from land use change, a...

Does litter input determine carbon storage and peat organic chemistry in tropical peatlands? (2018)
Journal Article
Upton, A., Vane, C. H., Girkin, N., Turner, B. L., & Sjögersten, S. (2018). Does litter input determine carbon storage and peat organic chemistry in tropical peatlands?. Geoderma, 326, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.geoderma.2018.03.030

Tropical peatlands hold large amounts of carbon but the influence of litter inputs and variation in peat properties with depth on carbon storage are poorly understood. Here we present a stratigraphy of peatland carbon stocks and accumulation through... Read More about Does litter input determine carbon storage and peat organic chemistry in tropical peatlands?.
