The effect of peat structure on the spatial distribution of biogenic gases within bogs

Abstract

Abstract Northern peatlands are a large source of atmospheric methane (CH 4 ) and both a source and a sink of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO 2 ). The rate and temporal variability in gas exchanges with peat soils is directly related to the spatial distribution of these free‐phase gases within the peat column. In this paper, we present results from surface and borehole ground‐penetrating radar surveys – constrained with direct soil and gas …
