Exploring Spatial Patterns of Tropical Peatland Subsidence in Selangor, Malaysia Using the APSIS-DInSAR Technique. Remote Sensing, 16(12), Article 2249. https://doi.org/10.3390/rs16122249

Tropical peatlands in Southeast Asia have experienced widespread subsidence due to forest clearance and drainage for agriculture, oil palm and pulp wood production, causing concerns about their function as a long-term carbon store. Peatland drainage... Read More about Exploring Spatial Patterns of Tropical Peatland Subsidence in Selangor, Malaysia Using the APSIS-DInSAR Technique.

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., Sowter, A., & 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...

Potential of APSIS-InSAR for measuring surface oscillations of tropical peatlands (2024)
Journal Article
Ledger, M. J., Sowter, A., Morrison, K., Evans, C. D., Large, D. J., Athab, A., Gee, D., Brown, C., & Sjögersten, S. (2024). Potential of APSIS-InSAR for measuring surface oscillations of tropical peatlands. PLoS ONE, 19(2), Article e0298939. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0298939

Tropical peatland across Southeast Asia is drained extensively for production of pulpwood, palm oil and other food crops. Associated increases in peat decomposition have led to widespread subsidence, deterioration of peat condition and CO2 emissions....
