MICROCOSMIC STUDY ON HETEROTROPHIC CO2 EMISSION FROM TROPICAL PEAT AS RELATED TO WATER TABLE MODIFICATION

ABSTRACT: A microcosmic experiment was conducted to estimate CO2 emission from peat soils. Two treatments, peat humification levels (F = Fibric, H = Hemic, S = Sapric) and water levels (G0 = 10 cm; G1= 0 cm; G2 = -10 cm; G3 = -20 cm), were tested and arranged according to factorial randomized compl...
