Incorporating Microtopography in a Land Surface Model and Quantifying the Effect on the Carbon Cycle
Abstract Northern peatlands are a terrestrial carbon store, with an annual sink of 0.1 Pg C yr−1 and a total storage estimate of 547 Pg C. Northern peatlands are also major contributors of atmospheric methane. Most land surface models do not accurately represent peatland carbon emissions, partly bec...
