Modelling pan-Arctic peatland carbon dynamics under alternative warming scenarios

The purpose of this study is to simulate peatland carbon dynamics in the future climate conditions for four major future warming scenarios. The study examines whether less pronounced warming could further enhance the peatland carbon sink capacity and buffer the effects of climate change. It will als...

Description
Summary:The purpose of this study is to simulate peatland carbon dynamics in the future climate conditions for four major future warming scenarios. The study examines whether less pronounced warming could further enhance the peatland carbon sink capacity and buffer the effects of climate change. It will also determine which trajectory peatland carbon balance will follow, what the main drivers are and which one will dominate in the future. In this study, LPJGUESS Peatland has been employed across the pan-Arctic and we carried out four sets of simulations. The data files contain the information about carbon accumulation, NEE, NPP and ice fraction. The paper has been accepted for publication in the Geophysical Research Letters.
