While the number of studies quantifying emissions of the greenhouse gases (GHGs) carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) and methane (CH 4 ) from peatland farming has increased in recent years, high uncertainty regarding the magnitude and drivers of emissions of the powerful GHG nitrous oxide (N 2 O) from farmed peatland soils remains. This study used eddy covariance to measure fluxes of N 2 O over a 3‐year period from a commercial farm in the...

Making predictions from ecological models—and comparing them to data—offers a coherent approach to evaluate model quality, regardless of model complexity or modelling paradigm. To date, our ability to use predictions for developing, validating, updating, integrating and applying models across scientific disciplines while influencing management decisions, policies, and the public has been hampered by disparate perspectives on p...
