Integrating Decomposers, Methane-Cycling Microbes and Ecosystem Carbon Fluxes Along a Peatland Successional Gradient in a Land Uplift Region

Heli Juottonen et al.

Summary: This study investigated the interplay between microbial and plant communities and ecosystem C cycling along a successional gradient in peatlands. Results showed that microbial activity and biomass were highest in early successional meadows, with functional microbial communities shifting at the fen-bog transition. Microbial responses to Sphagnum dominance and acidity diverged at the bog stage, indicating unique microbial dynamics in bogs.

Bjorn J. M. Robroek et al.

Summary: The study found differences in plant and prokaryotic communities under different environmental and climatic conditions, with complex turnover in interactions between them. The turnover in interactions between plants and microorganisms is faster than the turnover in their respective communities.

Soil Microbial Community Response to Permafrost Degradation in Palsa Fields of the Hudson Bay Lowlands: Implications for Greenhouse Gas Production in a Warming Climate

J. Adam H. Kirkwood et al.

Summary: Thawing permafrost in northern peatlands alters microbial activity, leading to increased greenhouse gas production, particularly methane. This paper examines the interactions between microbial communities, peat chemistry, moisture content, and temperature in degrading palsa fields.

Constraints on potential enzyme activities in thermokarst bogs: Implications for the carbon balance of peatlands following thaw

Liam Heffernan et al.

Summary: The study found that deep peat layers have very low potential enzyme activities, with no differences between young and mature bogs. Peat quality at depth was highly humified in both young and mature bogs. Near-surface peat in young bogs showed significantly higher potential enzyme activities compared to mature bogs, influenced by differences in peat quality derived from different Sphagnum species.

Exploring the mechanisms by which reindeer droppings induce fen peat methane production

Hannu Fritze et al.

Summary: The study found that adding reindeer droppings to fen peat increased the potential methane production by introducing Methanobacteriaceae to the peat, ultimately leading to an increase in methane emissions. This suggests that reindeer grazing may contribute to higher methane emissions in northern fens.

Tradeoff of CO2 and CH4 emissions from global peatlands under water-table drawdown

Yuanyuan Huang et al.

Summary: The impact of water-table drawdown in peatlands on climate is uncertain, as studies show conflicting results regarding the net greenhouse gas emissions despite the reduction in methane emissions. However, observations from 130 sites globally suggest a warming effect of water-table drawdown. Predictions indicate that water-table drawdown driven by climate drying and human activities will increase CO2 emissions and decrease CH4 emissions, resulting in a net increase in greenhouse gas emissions by the end of the twenty-first century under certain climate scenarios. Urgent action is needed to preserve and restore drained peatlands to slow down the positive feedback loop of water-table drawdown, increased greenhouse gas emissions, and climate warming.

BAWLD-CH4: a comprehensive dataset of methane fluxes from boreal and arctic ecosystems

McKenzie A. Kuhn et al.

Summary: Methane emissions from boreal and arctic regions are globally significant and highly sensitive to climate change. The study highlights the differences in estimates of methane fluxes using bottom-up and top-down approaches for high-latitude regions. The comprehensive dataset BAWLD-CH4 provides valuable information for future research opportunities and model validation in high-latitude ecosystems.
