A mesocosm approach to study the response of Sphagnum peatlands to hydrological changes: setup, optimisation and performance [PDF]
Mires and Peat, 2015 Sphagnum-dominated peatlands are major carbon pools and sinks, but these functions are threatened by climate change. There is, therefore, a need to better understand how microclimatic changes (soil temperature, soil moisture and water table depth) are ...

Concepts of fen and bog re-examined in relation to bryophyte cover and the acidity of surface waters
Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014 Studies of surface-water pH and bryophyte assemblages in 440 plots from five peatland regions across northern North America reveal a very distinct, two-fold division into fens with a pH mode at 6.76-7.00, in which Amblystegiaceae are prominent, and bogs ...

Drones, 2021 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

Vegetation and vegetation-environment relationships in a muskeg-fen near Thunder Bay, Ontario [PDF]
, 1979 This study takes place in an endangered peatland within the city of Thunder Bay Ontario. The study area, William Bog, is one of a few remaining peatlands in the Thunder Bay district which have developed on abandoned Minong phase lake basins on the ...

Hydrology, water chemistry and vegetation characteristics of a tamarack bog in Bath Township, Ohio: Towards restoration and enhancement [PDF]
, 2005 The current state of the Bath Tamarack Bog has raised concern about the health and function of the system. Only 6 tamarack (Larix laricina) trees remain, while deciduous trees, particularly red maple (Acer rubrum) and invasive species such as glossy ...

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

Warming Effects of Spring Rainfall Increase Methane Emissions From Thawing Permafrost
Geophysical Research Letters, 2019 Methane emissions regulate the near‐term global warming potential of permafrost thaw, particularly where loss of ice‐rich permafrost converts forest and tundra into wetlands.
