InSAR-measured permafrost degradation of palsa peatlands in northern Sweden (2024)
Journal Article
Valman, S., Siewert, M. B., Boyd, D., Ledger, M., Gee, D., de la Barreda-Bautista, B., …Sjögersten, S. (2024). InSAR-measured permafrost degradation of palsa peatlands in northern Sweden. Cryosphere, 18(4), 1773-1790. https://doi.org/10.5194/tc-18-1773-2024

Climate warming is degrading palsa peatlands across the circumpolar permafrost region. Permafrost degradation may lead to ecosystem collapse and potentially strong climate feedbacks, as this ecosystem is an important carbon store and can transition t...

Assessment of variability of peat physicochemical properties, subsidence and their interactions within Selangor forests (2023)
Journal Article
Dhandapani, S., Evers, S., Boyd, D. S., Yesuf, G., Kinneen, L., Haughan, A., & Sjogersten, S. (2023). Assessment of variability of peat physicochemical properties, subsidence and their interactions within Selangor forests. European Journal of Soil Science, 74(6), Article e13431. https://doi.org/10.1111/ejss.13431

Tropical peat swamp forests are carbon-rich ecosystems both above- and belowground, which play a major role in the climate balance of the earth. The majority of the world's tropical peat forest cover is located in Southeast Asia and is increasingly t...

Detecting tropical peatland degradation: Combining remote sensing and organic geochemistry (2023)
Journal Article
Brown, C., Boyd, D. S., Sjögersten, S., & Vane, C. H. (2023). Detecting tropical peatland degradation: Combining remote sensing and organic geochemistry. PLoS ONE, 18(3), Article e0280187. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0280187

Tropical peatlands are important carbon stores that are vulnerable to drainage and conversion to agriculture. Protection and restoration of peatlands are increasingly recognised as key nature based solutions that can be implemented as part of climate...
