Article Synopsis
- Tropical peatlands are vital carbon stores that contain large amounts of partially-decomposed plant material, with fine root production (FRP) being a major contributor.
- This study is the first to provide FRP estimates from the Congo Basin's peatlands, measuring FRP across different forest types over various seasons.
- Results showed FRP rates were similar among the ecosystems studied and decreased with depth, peaking during the dry season, highlighting the effectiveness of using minirhizotrons for low-impact FRP assessment.
