Redox potential is a robust indicator for decomposition processes in drained agricultural peat soils: A valuable tool in monitoring peatland wetting efforts

Redox potential is a robust indicator for decomposition processes in drained agricultural peat soils: A valuable tool in monitoring peatland wetting efforts

Peat decomposition driven by soil metabolic processes is responsible for approximately 2 % of global annual anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions. A peat soil's redox potential (Eh) and pH reflect its biogeochemical state and are therefore linked to the rate of peat decomposition and greenhous...
