Southeast Asia is a hotspot of riverine export of terrigenous organic carbon to the ocean, accounting for ∼10% of the global land-to-ocean riverine flux of terrigenous dissolved organic carbon (tDOC). While anthropogenic disturbance is thought to have increased the tDOC loss from peatlands in Southe...
