Biochar mitigates the peatland GHG dilemma under contrasting water table regimes: phase-dependent responses of CO2 and CH4 over a two-year study [0.03%]
生物炭缓解泥炭地温室气体两难问题：两年研究中的CO2和CH4相依赖性响应

Peduruhewa H Jeewani et al.
Peat soils are major terrestrial carbon stores, yet drainage alters redox conditions that stimulate CO2, CH4, and N2O emissions. We conducted a two-year mesocosm experiment to quantify how water table level (0, 20, and 40 cm) interacts with...

Not all biochar is equal. We clarify the frequent conflation between biochar carbon stability and soil co-benefits across research, policy, and markets. While stability ensures long-term carbon storage, co-benefits rely on more surface func...
Sustainable resource management with bone char-challenges and opportunities for enhancing soil health and phosphorus stocks [0.03%]
骨炭可持续资源管理的挑战与机遇——提高土壤健康和磷素存量方面的问题及对策研究

The agricultural sector urgently requires scalable solutions to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from residue management. Biochar offers a promising carbon removal pathway, but its adoption is limited by technical, regulatory, and econ...
Harnessing peatland rewetting for effective biochar-based carbon dioxide removal [0.03%]
基于生物炭的二氧化碳去除有效泥炭地复湿研究
Jennifer M Rhymes,Niall P McNamara,Davey L Jones et al.
Jennifer M Rhymes et al.
Biochar is widely recognised as a carbon dioxide removal (CDR) technology, but its stability depends on feedstock, pyrolysis conditions, and the soil environment. Current CDR schemes prioritise highly stable biochars to ensure long-term per...
Impact of biochar, compost, and sludge amendments on the soil water balance of a sandy soil [0.03%]
生物炭、堆肥和污泥对砂土田土壤水分平衡的影响

Josh Batterham et al.
Living wall systems (LWSs) help to alleviate the climate and biodiversity harms associated with buildings and bring benefits to building occupants. Their performance can be variable and existing research points to the planting substrate as ...
Wetter farming: raising water table and biochar for reduced GHG emissions while maintaining crop productivity in agricultural peatlands [0.03%]
温室农业：提高水稻田地下水位并添加生物炭以在保持作物产量的同时减少温室气体排放
Peduruhewa H Jeewani,Emmanuella Oghenefejiro Agbomedarho,Chris D Evans et al.
Peduruhewa H Jeewani et al.
Despite their high agricultural productivity, drained and cultivated peats are highly susceptible to degradation and significant sources of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. This study investigates the potential of water table manipulation an...
Restoring degraded agricultural peatlands: how rewetting, biochar, and iron sulphate synergistically modify microbial hotspots and carbon storage [0.03%]
退化农业泥炭地的修复：排灌、生物炭和铁硫酸盐如何协同作用来改变微生物热点区域和碳储存功能
Peduruhewa H Jeewani,Robert W Brown,Jennifer M Rhymes et al.
Peduruhewa H Jeewani et al.
The draining and conversion of peatlands for agriculture has led to their degradation globally, diminishing their carbon (C) storage capacity and functioning. However, rewetting, alongside the addition of organic/inorganic amendments, has t...
Biowaste to biochar: a techno-economic and life cycle assessment of biochar production from food-waste digestate and its agricultural field application [0.03%]
