Short summary

Peatlands are interesting options for carbon storage but are also natural emitters of the greenhouse gas methane. Peatlands dominated by common reed are interesting because of their global abundance as a wetland plant and their ability to transport gases between the soil and the atmosphere. We found that reed plants highly influenced methane fluxes due to their gas transport mechanism, and that our peatland was a net sink for greenhouse gases in the year 2013.
