Climate Warming and Deglaciation Drive New Peat Formation in the Southern Alps, Aotearoa/New Zealand

Abstract Nascent peatlands represent an emerging, nature‐based carbon sink in the global climate system. A warming climate and changing precipitation regime could drive peat initiation beyond the current latitudinal and altitudinal boundaries of the peatland bioclimatic envelope, through increases i...
