This project investigates the impact of permafrost thawing on carbon balance in northern peatlands. By utilizing advanced geospatial techniques, it aims to model the ecological transitions in these ecosystems and their implications for carbon storage.
Peatlands or mires contain about one third of this global terrestrial carbon pool which are located on between 3 and 6% of the global land area.
In the boreal and sub-arctic areas permafrost covers about 18,782 x 103 km2 and peatlands or mires cover about 19% of this area.
Observed mean annual air temperatures in these regions have increased by 2-3oC since the 1950s.
Thawing permafrost leads to changes in the form and function of northern peatlands and is characterised by the transition of dry p…
