The study indicates that northern peatlands converted to croplands emitted a significant amount of carbon during 850-2010, with some carbon sources appearing even before 1750. This carbon source exceeded the carbon accumulation of undisturbed high-latitude peatlands, and by considering the historical neglect of carbon losses from cultivated peatlands, it implies an 18% increase in terrestrial carbon storage since 1750.
When a peatland is drained and cultivated, it behaves as a notable source of CO2. However, we lack temporally and spatially explicit estimates of carbon losses from cultivated peatlands. Using a process-based land surface model that explicitly includes representation of peatland processes, we estimate that northern peatlands converted to croplands emitted 72 Pg C over 850-2010, with 45% of this source having occurred before 1750. This source surpassed the carbon accumulation by high-latitude undisturbed peatlands (36 to 47 Pg C). Carbon losses from the cultivation of northern peatlands are omitted in previous land-use emission assessments. Adding this ignored historical land-use emission implies an 18% larger terrestrial carbon storage since 1750 to close the historical global carbon budget. We also show that carbon emission per unit area decrease with time since drainage, suggesting that time since drainage should be accounted for in inventories to refine land- use emissions from cultivated peatlands.
