Methane Flux from Drained Northern Peatlands: Effect of a Persistent Water Table Lowering on Flux [PDF]

, 1993
Measurements of CH4 flux from drained and undrained sites in three northern Ontario peatlands (a treed fen, a forested bog, and a treed bog) were made from the beginning of May to the end of October 1991. In the drained portions, the water table had been

The role of microclimate in supporting peatlands as climate‐change refugia: A Central European perspective

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 1, January 2026.
Some peatlands in Central Europe serve as continuous refugia for glacial species, as shown by paleoecological data. However, the ecosystem mechanisms behind this are not well understood. Microclimate plays a key role, and understanding the factors shaping it is crucial for managing peatlands as climate‐change refugia.

Shallow soil moisture – ground thaw interactions and controls – Part 2: Influences of water and energy fluxes [PDF]

, 2010
The companion paper (Guan et al., 2010) demonstrated variable interactions and correlations between shallow soil moisture and ground thaw in soil filled areas along a wetness spectrum in a subarctic Canadian Precambrian Shield landscape.

The Role of Peripheral Regions in Shaping the Phylogeography of the Bear's Ear Complex Across the Alps

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Peripheral regions of the Alps are often overlooked in molecular studies, yet they may play a major role in shaping the current distribution of species and genetic lineages. Location Europe. Taxon Angiosperms (Primulaceae: Primula).

Spatiotemporal dynamics and driving mechanisms of alpine peatland wetlands in the eastern Qinghai–Tibet Plateau based on a Vision Transformer model

Ecological Indicators
The Zoige Wetland, located in the eastern Qinghai–Tibet Plateau, is the world’s largest alpine peatland. Understanding its spatiotemporal dynamics and driving mechanisms is essential for sustaining fragile plateau ecosystems.

Influence of topography and moisture and nutrient availability on green alder function on the low arctic tundra, NT [PDF]

, 2017
The Arctic has warmed by at least 3°C over the past 50 years and this rapid warming is expected to continue. Climate warming is driving the proliferation of shrubs across the tundra biome with implications for energy balance, climate, hydrology, nutrient

Effect of permafrost thaw on CO2 and CH4 exchange in a western Alaska peatland chronosequence [PDF]

, 2014
Permafrost soils store over half of global soil carbon (C), and northern frozen peatlands store about 10% of global permafrost C. With thaw, inundation of high latitude lowland peatlands typically increases the surface-atmosphere flux of methane (CH4), a

Experimental Warming Does Not Change Fluctuating Asymmetry in Three Willow Species

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.
We tested whether leaf fluctuating asymmetry (FA) responds to experimental warming in three boreal willow species using open‐top chambers and blind measurements. While warming increased specific leaf area, neither leaf length nor FA showed significant responses, and FA did not differ among species or individuals.

Contrasting Species—Environment Relationships in Communities of Testate Amoebae, Bryophytes and Vascular Plants Along the Fen-Bog Gradient [PDF]

, 2018
We studied the vegetation, testate amoebae and abiotic variables (depth of the water table, pH, electrical conductivity, Ca and Mg concentrations of water extracted from mosses) along the bog to extremely rich fen gradient in sub-alpine peatlands of the ...

Patterns and determinants of plant- and microbial-derived carbon in alpine peatlands

Journal Of Plant Ecology
Abstract Peatlands store approximately one-third of global soil organic carbon (SOC) and clarifying SOC sources is essential to assess soil C formation and stability in these C-rich ecosystems. However, large-scale patterns and drivers of plant- and microbial-derived C remain poorly understood in peatlands.
