Study Site: Canada
Purpose: Under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, Annex 1 countries must report annual carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from peatlands drained for extraction. However, the Tier 1 emission factor (EF) provided in the IPCC 2014 Wetland Supplement is based mainly on warm season data from a limited number of sites.
Abstract: Summary of published carbon dioxide field emission data and their influence factors used for generating Tier 1 emission factor of peat extractions in IPCC 2013 Wetland Supplementary and extra data published after IPCC
