Norway, and especially the Trøndelag region (map below), is a global hotspot for Sphagnum (peatmoss) biodiversity and research and home to about 50 species.
The warming climate shifts the dynamics of tundra environments and makes them release trapped carbon, according to a new study published in Nature. These changes could transform tundras from carbon sinks into a carbon source, exacerbating the effects of climate change.
Nature does the job for us, for free. But, in the search for good measures to compensate for man-made greenhouse gas emissions, carbon emissions from disturbance or loss of biodiversity caused by these measures are often not included in the calculation.
