Vegetation and vegetation-environment relationships in a muskeg-fen near Thunder Bay, Ontario [PDF]

open access: yes, 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 ...

Kinetically-controlled thin-film growth of layered $\beta$- and $\gamma-$Na$_{x}$CoO$_{2}$ cobaltate

open access: yes, 2005
We report growth characteristics of epitaxial $\beta$-Na$_{0.6}$CoO$_{2}$ and $\gamma$-Na$_{0.7}$CoO$_{2}$ thin films on (001) sapphire substrates grown by pulsed-laser deposition.

Non-Pollen Palynomorphs from Mid-Holocene Peat of the Raised Bog Borsteler Moor (Lower Saxony, Germany)

open access: yes, 2015
In order to reconstruct regional vegetation changes and local conditions during the fen-bog transition in the Borsteler Moor (northwestern Germany), a sediment core covering the period be tween 7.1 and 4.5 cal kyrs BP was palynologically investigated ...

Reconstruction and palaeoclimatic implications of Loch Lomond Readvance glaciers in the Southeast Grampians, Scotland

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The glaciation of Scotland during the Loch Lomond Stadial (LLS; 12.9–11.7 ka BP) left a distinct and well‐preserved geomorphological signature, permitting detailed reconstructions of former glaciers and palaeoclimatic conditions. However, the extent and style of glaciation in the Southeast Grampians remains poorly constrained.

Fire severity is more sensitive to low fuel moisture content on Calluna heathlands than on peat bogs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Moorland habitats dominated by the dwarf shrub Calluna vulgaris provide important ecosystem services. Drought is projected to intensify throughout their range, potentially leading to increased fire severity as moisture is a key control on severity.

At the far end of everything: A likely Ahrensburgian presence in the far north of the Isle of Skye, Scotland

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A Late Upper Paleolithic (LUP) site containing Ahrensburgian‐type stone tools has been discovered at South Cuidrach, Isle of Skye, Scotland. Together with a group of intertidal stone circular alignments also recently discovered on the island, this new evidence for the occupation of northern Scotland also represents the most northerly LUP site ...

Distribution of bog and heath in a Newfoundland blanket bog complex: topographic limits on the hydrological processes governing blanket bog development [PDF]

open access: yesHydrology and Earth System Sciences, 1999
This research quantified the role of topography and hydrological processes within and, hence, the development of, blanket bogs. Topographic characteristics were derived from digital elevation models (DEMs) developed for the surface and underlying ...

Howden Moss: a study of vegetational history in Upper Teesdale [PDF]

open access: yes, 1976
The peat deposits at Howden Moss, Upper Teesdale, have been examined stratigraphically and pollen analytically. The present state of the bog in described and pollen diagrams are presented for three sites. The results show that peat formation had begun by

Behaviour of carbon dioxide and water vapour flux densities from a disturbed raised peat bog [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Measurements of carbon dioxide and water vapour flux densities were carried out for a disturbed raised peat bog in the north of the Netherlands during an 18 month continuous experiment. Tussock grass (sp. Molinea caerulae) mainly dominated the vegetation

Reconstructing the late Pleistocene glacial history of the Cairngorm Mountains, Scotland, using paired cosmogenic 10Be and 14C

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chronologic and geomorphic evidence of past glaciations is largely recorded in areas at relatively low elevation and/or landscapes defined by high glacial erosion. As a result, data from areas that did not experience significant glacial erosion and the highest elevation locations are lacking from reconstructions of past ice masses.
