Key Points

  • The aim is to examine the effects of water management and grassland renewal on GHG emissions in peat soil environments.
  • Comparative analysis of GHG emissions at fen and bog peat sites.
  • Assessment of groundwater levels affected by submerged drains and ditch blocking.
  • Measurement of CO2 and nitrous oxide emissions post ploughing.
  • No reduction in GHG emissions observed at the fen peat site due to minimal groundwater level changes.
  • Higher CO2 emissions detected at bog peat parcels with submerged drains in summer.
  • Increased nitrous oxide emissions linked to shallow ploughing.

Abstract

No reduction of GHG emissions at the fen peat site, probably as groundwater levels were only slightly raised by submerged drains and ditch blocking. • Water levels were clearly raised at the bog peat site, but considerably higher CO2 emissions occurred at parcels with submerged drains, probably due to optimum soil moisture in summer. • Increased nitrous oxide emissions were measured after shallow ploughing.
