Abstract

Land clearing for oil palm plantations is considered a contributor to the increasing concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere. This study measured the influence of groundwater depth, subsidence rate, and climate on the CO2 emissions in peatland from oil palm plantations. This study was conducted at the peatland of oil palm plantations in Siak District, Riau Province, Indonesia from June 2019 to June 2021. This study used an analytical method and was tested with linear regression. The results showed that the highest values of CO2 emissions found in the groundwater depth > 0.6 m of 39.82 ton ha−1 year−1. The groundwater depth significantly increases the value of CO2 emissions at the peatlands in oil palm plantations with r2 = 0.206. The deeper groundwater depth in peatlands then increased emissions of CO2 produced. Subsidence, rainfall, soil temperature, and solar radiation insignificantly affect the emissions of CO2 at the peatland in oil palm plantations, and its relationship was classified as weak.
