Membrane inlet mass spectrometry was used to monitor dissolved gas concentrations and gas exchange rates of CO2, CH4 and O2 in peat cores from three very different locations in the Northern Hemisphere: Kopparås Mire (Sweden), Hestur Site (Iceland), and Ellergower Moss (Scotland). With an increase of...
