Impact of climate change on wetland ecosystems: A critical review of experimental wetlands

  • 1. University of Lund

Description

 

  • Drought might shift the role of wetlands from carbon sinks to carbon sources.
  • Higher temperatures and more rain can maintain the role of wetlands as carbon sinks.
  • There might be a critical water level at which a wetland can preserve its services.
  • A new framework for conducting wetland mesocosm experiments has been proposed.
  • The proposed experiment allows for testing of dynamic process-based model results.
