  • A new data-driven map predicts substantial undocumented peatland areas in Amazonia

    Open AccessAdam Hastie, John Ethan Householder et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2024

    Tropical peatlands are among the most carbon-dense terrestrial ecosystems yet recorded. Collectively, they comprise a large but highly uncertain reservoir of the global carbon cycle, with wide-ranging estimates of their global area (441 025–1700 000 km 2 ) and below-ground carbon storage (105–288 Pg C). Substantial gaps remain in our understanding of peatland distribution in some key regions, including most of tropical South America. Here we comp…

  • Navigating shifting waters

    Open AccessLuis Andueza, Margarita Del Aguila Villacorta et al.ARTICLEGeoforum2023References: 15

    This paper examines the relationships between extractive infrastructure, changing territorial strategies, and contemporary processes of subject formation among the Urarina, an indigenous people in the Peruvian Amazon. We first introduce the uneven and combined character of oil extraction in the Loreto region in north-eastern Peru, and how its racialised spatial contradictions are expressed in the ethnopolitical field that gives political form to …

  • Intensive field sampling increases the known extent of carbon-rich Amazonian peatland pole forests

    Open AccessEurídice N Honorio Coronado, Adam Hastie et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2021

    Peatland pole forest is the most carbon-dense ecosystem in Amazonia, but its spatial distribution and species composition are poorly known. To address this knowledge gap, we quantified variation in the floristic composition, peat thickness, and the amount of carbon stored above and below ground of 102 forest plots and 53 transects in northern Peruvian Amazonia. This large dataset includes 571 ground reference points of peat thickness measurements…
