30%
of global soil carbon is stored in wetlands
20-50x
Wetlands can emit methane up to 50x more than CO2

Natural buffers protecting climate and biodiversity
Science
Generating data for better climate-informed decisions
We are a research group at the Asian School of the Environment (ASE), Nanyang Technological University (NTU), Singapore, established in 2024.
We quantify carbon exchange in tropical wetlands to improve climate models and guide carbon management strategies.
Through field-based research and data analysis, we generate knowledge that clarifies how wetlands, including peatlands and mangroves, contribute to climate change 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.
