Towards developing IPCC methane ‘emission factors’ for peatlands (organic soils)
(1) Huge reductions of carbon dioxide (CO2) and nitrous oxide (N2O) effluxes can be attained by rewetting drained peatlands, but this will increase methane (CH4) effluxes.(2) The scientific data base for methane effluxes from peatlands is much larger than that for CO2 or N2O. Once anoxic condition...
