Simple Equation Predicts the Shapes of Carbon-Capturing Wetlands | Quanta Magazine To calculate the amount of carbon stored inside peatlands, researchers developed a unified theory of “bog physics” applicable around the world.

The model, if it works as advertised, could make it easy to tally up the carbon in a bog — a crucial step in determining a given bog’s contribution to reducing climate change.
