Climate Crisis Worsens: New Study Shows Peatlands Losing Battle Against Drought
https://scitechdaily.com/climate-crisis-worsens-new-study-shows-peatlands-losing-battle-against-drought/
Peatlands experience greater impacts from drought than previously anticipated, raising concerns due to their crucial role in combating climate change. Prolonged drought conditions significantly reduce the capacity of peat to absorb additional carbon dioxide (CO2). Furthermore, enhancing biodiversity
