Remote sensing of seasonal light use efficiency in temperate bog ecosystems

Abstract Despite storing approximately half of the atmosphere’s carbon, estimates of fluxes between wetlands and atmosphere under current and future climates are associated with large uncertainties, and it remains a challenge to determine human impacts on the net greenhouse gas balance of wetlands a...
