From carbon sink to carbon source: extensive peat oxidation in insular Southeast Asia since 1990

Tropical peatlands of the western part of insular Southeast Asia have experienced extensive land cover changes since 1990. Typically involving drainage, these land cover changes have resulted in increased peat oxidation in the upper peat profile. In this paper we provide current (2015) and cumulativ...
