A climatically significant abiotic mechanism driving carbon loss and nitrogen limitation in peat bogs

Abstract Sphagnum-dominated bogs are climatically impactful systems that exhibit two puzzling characteristics: CO2:CH4 ratios are greater than those predicted by electron balance models and C decomposition rates are enigmatically slow. We hypothesized that Maillard reactions partially explain both p...
