Fig. 1: Global warming and climatic effects of peatland management.
From: Prompt rewetting of drained peatlands reduces climate warming despite methane emissions
Mean global temperature change relative to 2005 (a) and frequency distribution of the timing of peak warming (b) according to AR5 model pathways (downloaded from IAMC AR5 Scenario Database) are shown compared with radiative forcings (RF) and estimated instantaneous warming effects of global peatland management scenarios (panel c, own calculations). Please note that in panel c) forcing of peatlands that remain pristine is assumed to be zero.
