Fluxes and <sup>13</sup>C isotopic composition of dissolved carbon and pathways of methanogenesis in a fen soil exposed to experimental drought

Peatlands contain a carbon stock of global concern and significantly contribute to the global methane burden. The impact of drought and rewetting on carbon cycling in peatland ecosystems is thus currently debated. We studied the impact of experimental drought and rewetting on intact monoliths from a...
