Abstract:<p>The 16.5 million ha Cuvette Centrale peatland complex in the Congo Basin was described for the first time in 2017. However, a proper understanding of the entire hydrological functioning of this peatland complex is a challenge and large-scale land surface models (LSMs) are unlikely to accurately represent the circulation of water in this area. One of the major issues of large-scale LSMs is the quantification of the spatially- and temporally-variable lateral water input from rivers into peatland… Show more
