Abstract:
Despite its identified importance for conservation, the peat forests in Tripa have experienced high change dynamics. To understand these dynamics, assessments of conversions of vegetation cover in the Tripa area have been conducted, including estimation of the loss of aboveground carbon. Historical analyses can be useful to support efforts to protect the remaining peat swamp forest in Tripa.
