Invertebrate communities in a modified isolated raised bog compared to an intact raised bog in New Zealand [PDF]

open access: yesMires and Peat, 2020
The effect of modifying New Zealand’s threatened peat bogs on invertebrate communities is poorly known, despite their susceptibility to disturbance and their ecological significance. Using Malaise traps, we surveyed and compared terrestrial invertebrates

Measuring and modeling nitrogen export from cranberry farms

open access: yesEcosphere, 2021
Nitrogen (N) pollution is arguably the single greatest threat to coastal water quality in the United States. In the state of Massachusetts, sustainable management of cranberry agriculture requires detailed understanding of potential sources and losses of

Vitality of bog pine and colonising Norway spruce along environmental gradients within a bog [PDF]

open access: yesMires and Peat, 2019
Bog pine is an endangered species in Europe as drainage of bogs permits colonisation by Norway spruce, resulting in severe bog pine habitat loss in marginal bog forests, and a habitat shift towards the bog centre where growing conditions are extreme ...

Regional and local patterns in depth to water table, hydrochemistry and peat properties of bogs and their laggs in coastal British Columbia [PDF]

open access: yesHydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2013
In restoration planning for damaged raised bogs, the lagg at the bog margin is often not given considerable weight and is sometimes disregarded entirely.

Weak impact of nutrient enrichment on peat: Evidence from physicochemical properties

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Atmospheric deposition of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) far exceeding the pre-industrial levels have the potential to change carbon (C) dynamics in northern peatlands.

Navigating value networks to co‐create sustainable business models: An actionable staging approach

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, Volume 32, Issue 1, Page 240-258, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Sustainable transitions typically require collaboration between multiple actors in the value chain or value network. Recent research has emphasized mapping of stakeholders and values as a starting point for identifying opportunities to realign these relationships, followed by business model experimentation to enable change.

The making of imperfect indicators for biodiversity: A case study of UK biodiversity performance measurement

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, Volume 32, Issue 1, Page 336-352, January 2023., 2023
Abstract This paper seeks to understand the process by which biodiversity performance indicators can be developed. In doing so, this paper examines how biodiversity performance measurements are inherently imperfect and reflects on the implications of that imperfectness.

Abrupt Fen-Bog Transition Across Southern Patagonia: Timing, Causes, and Impacts on Carbon Sequestration

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Fens and bogs are distinct in terms of their biogeochemistry, water table behavior, and net peat-accumulation regimes. While most peatlands start developing as fens, a large fraction of them eventually shift to bogs in a step-like ecosystem shift.

Distribution models calibrated with independent field data predict two million ancient and veteran trees in England

open access: yesEcological Applications, Volume 32, Issue 8, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Large, citizen‐science species databases are powerful resources for predictive species distribution modeling (SDM), yet they are often subject to sampling bias. Many methods have been proposed to correct for this, but there exists little consensus as to which is most effective, not least because the true value of model predictions is hard to ...

Ground-penetrating radar study of the Rahivere peat bog, eastern Estonia [PDF]

open access: yesEstonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2011
The current case study presents results of the ground-penetrating radar (GPR) profiling at one of the Saadjärve drumlin field interstitial troughs, the Rahivere bog, eastern Estonia.
