The hydrological and geochemical isolation of a freshwater bog within a saline fen in north-eastern Alberta [PDF]
Mires and Peat, 2013 In the oil sands development region near Fort McMurray, Alberta, wetlands cover ~62 % of the landscape, and ~95 % of these wetlands are peatlands. A saline fen was studied as a reference site for peatland reclamation.

Minimizing Power Consumption Related to BOG Reliquefaction in an LNG Regasification Terminal
, 2016 The generation of boil-off gas (BOG) is inevitable in liquefied-natural-gas (LNG) regasification terminals. It can be a safety concern and, in most cases, demands BOG reliquefaction before regasification.

Drivers of plant community composition and diversity in low Arctic western Greenland
Ecography, EarlyView.The Arctic experiences rapid climate change, but our ability to predict how this will influence plant communities is hampered by a lack of data on the extent to which different species are associated with particular environmental conditions, how these conditions are interlinked, and how they will change in coming years.

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.

Quality loss of Swiss bog vegetation - the key importance of the margins [PDF]
Mires and Peat, 2017 Swiss Bogs of National Importance were designated as protected areas in 1991. However, their quality was found to have decreased over a 5–7 year monitoring period.

Understanding Wildfires in Norway: Key Hazards and Vegetation Fires Damaging Buildings 2016–2023
Fire and Materials, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Wildland–urban interface (WUI) fires are an increasing global challenge, and local knowledge is essential for efficient mitigation. In Norway, as for the rest of Northern Europe, wildfires are expected to increase in frequency and severity, which will also increase WUI vulnerabilities.
