Scrub encroachment promotes biodiversity in temperate European wetlands under eutrophic conditions
Wetlands are important habitats, often threatened by drainage, eutrophication, and suppression of grazing. In many countries, considerable resources are spent combatting scrub encroachment.

Responses of fen and fen‐meadow communities to ozone [PDF]
• Species of fen and fen-meadow communities, well supplied with water and nutrients, are characterised by high rates of growth, stomatal conductance values and specific leaf areas, all factors which have been associated with high sensitivity to ozone.
