Regeneration potential of a degraded alpine mountain bog: complex regeneration patterns after grazing cessation and partial rewetting [PDF]
A typical degraded mountain bog in the Swiss Alps was restored by cessation of grazing and partial rewetting. We observed the development of the vegetation over 15 years, starting immediately after the grazing cessation (4 years before rewetting ...

The biocenotic value of Slītere National Park, Latvia, with special reference to inter-dune mires [PDF]
Inter-dune wetlands in Europe harbour many Red List species because they are very nutrient-poor ecosystems. Most of these wetlands are geologically very young and no or little peat formation has occurred.

The mapping of peatland microtopography (e.g., hummocks and hollows) is key for understanding and modeling complex hydrological and biochemical processes. Here we compare unmanned aerial system (UAS) derived structure-from-motion (SfM) photogrammetry and

Regional and local patterns in depth to water table, hydrochemistry and peat properties of bogs and their laggs in coastal British Columbia [PDF]
In restoration planning for damaged raised bogs, the lagg at the bog margin is often not given considerable weight and is sometimes disregarded entirely.

(excerpt) On July 1, 1975, while collecting 18 Pieris napi oleraceal (Harris) in the famous tamarack bog near Mongo, LaGrange Co., Indiana, I collected a somewhat worn male Erynnis funeralis Scudder & Burgess when it was resting on the ground in an area ...

Aniulus Paludicolens, N. SP. (Julida: Paraiulidae), a Bog-Dwelling Milliped [PDF]
Almost without exception, millipeds require a continuously moist substratum, yet they do not tolerate flooding. Other ecological factors that limit their distribution are subtle and difficult to recognize. Aniulus paludicolens, n.

Regional patterns and controlling factors in plant species composition and diversity in Canadian lowland coastal bogs and laggs [PDF]
Inventories of natural assemblages of plant species are critical when planning ecological restoration of bogs. However, little is known about the regional variation in plant communities at the margins (laggs) of bogs, even though they are an integral ...

Multi-decadal studies of community and ecosystemdynamics are rare; however, this time frame is most relevant for assessing the impact of anthropogenic influences and climate change on ecosystems. For this reason, we investigated changes in vegetation and

Zooplankton under the conditions of lake eutrophication and acidification
Bogging processes are accompanied by the accumulation of humic acids, pH decrease, and low values of oxygen dissolved in water. Environmental conditions that are unfavorable for hydrobionts affect zooplankton communities and change their structure.
