The Depositional Record, EarlyView.A new classification for inland freshwater palaeowetlands to be used in the field or core laboratory by sedimentologists, providing examples from the Guadix Basin (southern Spain). Abstract Present wetlands have proven to be delicate, biodiverse ecosystems, that are natural sinks for CO2 and act as good indicators for climate changes.

The significance of nitrogen mobilization with respect to the development of barley
Agricultural and Food Science, 1959 In the investigation has been stated, that up to time of coming into ear the barley had developed at nearly the same rate on the Sphagnum bog and the fen, which are differing distinctly with respect to nitrogen mobilization.

Examining the Effect of Pore Size Distribution and Shape on Flow through Unsaturated Peat using Computer Tomography [PDF]
, 2009 The hydraulic conductivity of unsaturated peat soil is controlled by the air-filled porosity, pore size and geometric distribution as well as other physical properties of peat materials. This study investigates how the size and shape of pores affects the

Archaeological Geophysical Prospection in Peatland Environments: case studies and suggestions for future practice [PDF]
, 2009 Peatland environments, in contrast to ‘dry-land’ sites, preserve organic material, including anthropogenic objects, because they are anaerobic, and are therefore of great importance to archaeology. Peat also preserves macro- and micro- paleoenvironmental

, 2017 . Fine particulate matter (PM2.5) was collected in situ from peat smoke during the 2015 El Nino peat fire episode in Central Kalimantan, Indonesia. Twenty-one PM samples were collected from 18 peat fire plumes that were primarily smoldering with modified

“Megaceros Hibernicus” in Peat [PDF]
Nature, 1882 MY friend, Dr. Leith Adams, has given it as his opinion that the Irish elk is only found in the clay or marl under the peat, while I contended that some of them occur in the peat, this opinion being formed from reports of finds in the counties of Limerick, Carlow, and Wexford, also from the colour and appearance of the bones; still I could not be ...

The Depositional Record, EarlyView.A 30 m long sedimentary succession at the bottom of the Belize Blue Hole represents terrestrial cenote (12.5–7.2 ka BP), restricted marine swamp (7.2–5.7 ka BP) and fully marine lagoonal phases (5.7–0 ka BP) on Lighthouse Reef carbonate platform. Post‐glacial and Holocene sea‐level rise largely controlled the sedimentological, faunal and floral changes

Testing the use of bomb radiocarbon to date the surface layers of blanket peat [PDF]
, 2004 The recently formed surface layers of peatlands are archives of past environmental conditions and can have a temporal resolution considerably greater than deeper layers.

, 2017 Peat is used as a high quality substrate for growing media in horticulture. However, unsustainable peat extraction damages peatland ecosystems, which disappeared to a large extent in Central and South Europe. Furthermore, disturbed peatlands are becoming

The Depositional Record, EarlyView.Bermuda patch reefs development was primarily controlled by massive coral framework construction, and variation in environmental energy, turbidity and bioerosion. These factors shaped the size, diversity and preservation of the framework, leading to a suppressed, steady vertical accretion.
