  • Timing of peat initiation across the central Congo Basin

    Open AccessGreta C Dargie, Pauline Gulliver et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2025

    The central Congo Basin contains the world’s most extensive tropical peatland complex, spanning 16.7 million hectares. Until now, radiocarbon dating of basal peats has been limited to 14 samples with poor spatial coverage, and suggested that peat typically initiated during the Holocene. We present 38 new basal dates, improving spatial coverage across the region. Some of the new basal dates are much older than any previous dates, indicating that p…

  • Low, but gradually growing deforestation and carbon emissions from the Cuvette Centrale peatlands, 2001–2021

    Open AccessShona Jenkins Shona Jenkins, Shona J Jenkins et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2025

    Earth’s largest tropical peatland, first mapped in 2017, is located within an immense wetland in the Congo Basin, the Cuvette Centrale, covering 167 600 km 2 . Here, for the first time, we estimate spatio-temporal tree cover loss patterns and the resultant carbon emissions in these forested peatlands using Global Forest Change data from 2001–2021. We find tree cover loss affected 1.4% of the peatlands over 20 years (0.07% yr −1 ), with 89% occurr…

  • An assessment of recent peat forest disturbances and their drivers in the Cuvette Centrale, Africa

    Open AccessKarimon Nesha, Martin Herold et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2024

    The largest tropical peatland complex in the Cuvette Centrale is marked by persistent knowledge gaps. We assessed recent peat forest disturbances and their direct drivers from 2019 to 2021 in Cuvette Centrale, spanning the Republic of Congo (ROC) and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). Utilizing peatland maps and Radar for Detecting Deforestation alert data, we analyzed spatial and temporal patterns of disturbances. Further, we examined 2267 …

  • The Relationship Between Tool Use and Prey Availability in Chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes schweinfurthii) of Northern Democratic Republic of Congo

    Open AccessThurston C Hicks, Hjalmar S Kühl et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2020Citada por: 2Referencias: 57

    A key feature of human behavioral diversity is that it can be constrained by cultural preference (“cultural override”); that is, population-specific preferences can override resource availability. Here we investigate whether a similar phenomenon can be found in one of our closest relatives, as well as the potential impacts of ecological differences on feeding behavior. Our study subjects were different subpopulations of Eastern chimpanzees ( Pan …

  • Phytoliths from Archaeological Sites in the Tropical Forest of Ituri, Democratic Republic of Congo

    Open AccessJ Mercader, Freya Runge et al.ARTICLEQuaternary Research2000

    Phytoliths record late Quaternary vegetation at three archaeological sites in the Ituri rain forest. The oldest deposits, dated to ca. 19,000 to 10,000 14 C yr B.P., contain abundant phytoliths of grasses but also enough arboreal forms to show that the landscape was forested. The late-glacial forests may have had a more open canopy than today's. Younger phytolith assemblages show that the northeast Congo basin was densely forested throughout the …
