Getting to the root of the matter: variations in vascular root biomass and production in peatlands and responses to global change
Root biomass, production and decomposition have been poorly studied in peatland ecosystems despite evidence that they may be equal to or greater than aboveground vascular plant components and contribute significantly more carbon (C) to the soil organic matter pool. At the same time, global...
