WETLAND CARBON LAB
Greenhouse gas monitoring : Carbon Removal : Peatland : Blue Carbon
We are a research group at the Asian School of the Environment (ASE), Nanyang Technological University (NTU), Singapore, established in 2024.
Our mission is to document the importance of wetland ecosystems in addressing some of the effects of climate change.
Through field-based research and data analysis, we generate knowledge that reveals how wetlands—including peatlands and mangroves—contribute to climate mitigation.
Our Work
We work with state-of-the-art field research devices to acquire near real-time monitoring of carbon exchange between wetland ecosystems, the atmosphere and the hydrosphere. We quantify how much carbon and greenhouse gas is being stored or released from wetlands.
Relevance
These measurements are important to understand the global carbon budget, improve carbon credit methodologies, and develop natural climate solution strategies.
