Land use conversion from peat swamp forest to oil palm agriculture greatly modifies microclimate and soil conditions
Oil palm (Elaeis guineensis) agriculture is rapidly expanding and requires large areas of land in the tropics to meet the global demand for palm oil products. Land cover conversion of peat swamp forest to oil palm (large- and small-scale oil palm production) is likely to have negative impacts on mic...
