Peatlands after drainage and extraction are large sources of carbon (C) to the atmosphere. Restoration, through re‐wetting and revegetation, aims to return the C sink function by re‐establishing conditions similar to that of an undrained peatland. However, the time needed to re‐establish C sequestration is not well constrained due to the lack of multi‐year measurements. We measured over 3 years the net ecosystem exchange of CO...

This study reports on the radiation and energy balance of three sites (rural, suburban, and urban) located along an urbanization gradient in the Montreal, QC, region for two winters (December–March) with contrasting snow regimes. The urban and suburban sites had similar albedo which was about half that at the rural site during the snow‐cover period. Temporal variability in albedo was attributable to the presence of snow on roo...
