The Burial Under Peat Technique: An Innovative Method to Restore Sphagnum Peatlands Impacted by Mineral Linear Disturbances

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
Mineral roads in peatlands change the nature of the substrate, influence the water table level of the peatland on either side of the road and the physicochemical characteristics of the water and peat.

Evasion Differential Games in the Space of Square Summable Sequences

open access: yesGames
In this article, we consider simple-motion pursuit–evasion differential games in the Hilbert space of square summable sequences. We show that when the players have the same dynamic capabilities, evasion is possible under some assumptions about the ...

Hydrological self-regulation of domed peatlands in south-east Asia and consequences for conservation and restoration [PDF]

open access: yesMires and Peat, 2010
This article explores the hydrological constraints on the existence of forested peat domes (peat swamp forests) in the humid tropics, the self-regulation mechanisms that enable them to persist and the implications for restoration of damaged domes.

Assessment and Spatial Planning for Peatland Conservation and Restoration: Europe’s Trans-Border Neman River Basin as a Case Study

open access: yesLand, 2021
Peatlands are the “kidneys” of river basins. However, intensification of agriculture and forestry in Europe has resulted in the degradation of peatlands and their biodiversity (i.e., species, habitats and processes in ecosystems), thus impairing water ...

Vascular plant species response to warming and elevated carbon dioxide in a boreal peatland

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2020
Peatlands store a significant amount of terrestrial organic carbon in plant biomass and soils. The Spruce and Peatland Responses Under Changing Environments (SPRUCE) project is a warming and elevated carbon dioxide (eCO _2 ) experiment designed to test ...

Forecasting spring frost events in agriculture using machine learning: A case study from southeastern Massachusetts, United States

open access: yesSmart Agricultural Technology
Agricultural crops are frequently exposed to severe frost events in the spring, which can greatly impact yield quantity and quality. To manage frost effectively, early warning systems are often used to forecast potential spring frost in advance of an ...

Chemical and Phytocoenological Characteristics of Two Different Slovak Peatlands

open access: yesPlants, 2021
This paper presents the results of pedological and phytocoenological research focused on the detailed research of chemical parameters (pH, organic carbon, and nutrients), risk elements (As-metalloid, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb, and Zn), and species ...
