TL;DR: This article examined the global relationship between peatland carbon accumulation rates during the last millennium and planetary-scale climate space and found a positive relationship between carbon accumulation and cumulative photosynthetically active radiation during the growing season for mid-to high-latitude peatlands in both hemispheres.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyse testate amoeba-derived hydrological reconstructions from 31 peatlands across Britain, Ireland, Scandinavia and Continental Europe to examine changes in peatland surface wetness during the last 2,000 years.

TL;DR: Comparison to test sets showed that taxonomic resolution did not impair model performance and that the new pan-European model can therefore be used as an effective tool for palaeohydrological reconstruction, and substantiated recent advice that model outputs should be standardised and presented as residual values in order to focus interpretation on secure directional shifts.

TL;DR: A high-resolution palaeoecological approach is used to understand the longer-term response of peatlands in contrasting states of permafrost degradation to recent rapid warming and suggests a shared ecohydrological trajectory towards a common end point: inundated Arctic fen.

TL;DR: The authors examined mid-to-late Holocene centennial-scale climate variability in Ireland using proxy data from peatlands, lakes and a speleothem and found that there are some periods of coherence between these records.
