Undrained peatland areas disturbed by surrounding drainage: a large scale GIS analysis in Finland with a special focus on aapa mires [PDF]
Mires and Peat, 2019 Half of the Finnish peatland area is drained for forestry. The remaining undrained peatlands are not all pristine, because surrounding drainage may disturb their hydrology.

Can a bog drained for forestry be a stronger carbon sink than a natural bog forest
, 2014 This study compares the CO2 exchange of a nat- ural bog forest, and of a bog drained for forestry in the pre-Alpine region of southern Germany. The sites are sep- arated by only 10 km, they share the same soil formation his- tory and are exposed to the ...

Challenges in dating blanket peat and implications for understanding its initiation in Ireland
Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Blanket peat is widespread in maritime extra‐tropical environments. Prehistoric land‐use activity was traditionally invoked as the stimulus of blanket peat initiation in the British Isles, but recently, climate has been viewed as the driver of peat formation.

The identification of Late Holocene bog bursts at Littleton bog, Ireland: ecohydrological changes display complex climatic and non-climatic drivers [PDF]
, 2017 In order to clearly understand the response of raised mires to past climate change, it is important to consider the full range of drivers and responses of these ecohydrological archives.

COLLAB: A Global Survey of Clinical and Laboratory Assessment in Alopecia Areata by Hair Specialists
JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Alopecia areata (AA) is a common non‐scarring alopecia. Data continue to emerge on associations with autoimmune and other conditions. Janus kinase inhibitors (JAKi) are increasingly used to treat AA. Objectives The aim was to assess variation in laboratory testing in patients with AA among hair experts internationally and to compare

Recovery of Sphagnum mosses in donor sites after cutting: effects of species and some environmental factors [PDF]
Mires and PeatSpontaneous revegetation of extracted peatlands is a very slow and sporadic process and, therefore, Sphagnum fragments cut from donor sites are often used for restoration.

A synthesis of evidence for the effects of interventions to conserve peatland vegetation: overview and critical discussion [PDF]
Mires and Peat, 2019 Peatlands are valuable but threatened ecosystems. Intervention to tackle direct threats is often necessary, but should be informed by scientific evidence to ensure it is effective and efficient.

Seasonal patterns and controls on net ecosystem CO2 exchange in a boreal peatland complex [PDF]
, 1998 We measured seasonal patterns of net ecosystem exchange (NEE) of CO2 in a diverse peatland complex underlain by discontinuous permafrost in northern Manitoba, Canada, as part of the Boreal Ecosystems Atmosphere Study (BOREAS).
