Expert assessment of future vulnerability of the global peatland carbon sink

Julie Loisel, +73 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors define and quantify the leading drivers of change that have impacted peatland carbon stocks during the Holocene and predict their effect during this century and in the far future.
Journal ArticleDOI

Climate Warming Can Accelerate Carbon Fluxes without Changing Soil Carbon Stocks

TL;DR: This article investigated the effects of climate on C fluxes and soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks using space-for-time substitution along a boreal forest climate gradient encompassing spatially replicated sites at each of three latitudes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Soil organic nitrogen cycling increases with temperature and precipitation along a boreal forest latitudinal transect

TL;DR: In this article, changes in biochemical composition during organic nitrogen diagenesis were investigated by analyzing hydrolysable amino acids in the organic (L, F, and H) horizons and the surface mineral (B) horizon of soil profiles from the Newfoundland and Labrador Boreal Ecosystem Latitudinal Transect (NL-BELT).
Journal ArticleDOI

Does oxygen exposure time control the extent of organic matter decomposition in peatlands

TL;DR: In this paper, the extent of peat decomposition was investigated in four cores collected along a latitudinal gradient from 56°N to 66°N in the West Siberian Lowland.
Journal ArticleDOI

The origin of soil organic matter controls its composition and bioreactivity across a mesic boreal forest latitudinal gradient.

TL;DR: In this article, the elemental, chemical and isotopic composition of plant litter and organic matter (SOM) was analyzed across a well-constrained mesic boreal forest latitudinal transect in Atlantic Canada.
