Impact of deforestation on solid and dissolved organic matter characteristics of tropical peat forests: implications for carbon release
This study compares the organic chemistry of peat beneath one of last remaining pristine tropical peat forests in Southeast Asia with a neighbouring peat dome that has been deforested, but not intentionally drained, in the Belait district of Brunei Darussalam, Borneo. We characterized the solid and...
