Our new paper in #hydrologicalprocesses reports the first Ksat measurements from central Congo Basin peatlands, and explores the possibility of pan-tropical pedotransfer functions. A great team effort from the CongoPeat project. Open access and free to all! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...
We show that saturated hydraulic conductivity (Ksat) in surficial peats of central Congo Basin is low compared to deeper peat layers elsewhere in the tropics. Low Ksat in Congolese peats may be a res...
