Dr. Fereidoun Rezanezhad (member of the Ecohydrology Research Group and the Water Institute) co-authored a paper titled "Soil degradation determines release of nitrous oxide and dissolved organic carbon from peatlands", which was recently published in Environmental Research Letters. In this collaborative work between researchers from Germany, Denmark and Canada, the authors found that the bulk density, as a proxy for peat degradation, plays an important role in peat biogeochemical processes and they showed the importance of peat degradation as the main driver of N2O and DOC release.
