Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Applied nucleation aims to restore degraded ecosystems efficiently by establishing vegetation patches that increase in biodiversity and extent through natural dispersal and facilitation. Although widely tested in terrestrial ecosystems, its long‐term outcomes in wetlands remain poorly understood, particularly how restored ...

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Objective The Dutch Slough Tidal Restoration project in the Sacramento‐San Joaquin Delta involves flooding of delta lands; however, concerns have been raised that such flooding will increase the hydraulic pressures on subsided adjacent islands and threaten levee stability.

Nordia Geographical PublicationsPeatlands are important ecosystems that support biodiversity, regulate greenhouse gases (GHGs) and flooding, and help to purify water. In Finland, however, more than 50 % of peatlands have been drained to support forestry, agriculture, and peat ...

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.The Aquatic warbler (Acrocephalus paludicola) is the rarest songbird of continental Europe and a fen mire specialist. The systematic drainage in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries resulted in the loss of almost all fen mires in the breeding range. In our conservative and cautious estimate, we assume that the total historical population was around ...

Multi‐year occupancy and habitat use in a threatened butterfly reintroduced onto a restored peatland
Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Over half of insect species reintroductions are unsuccessful, frequently because of insufficient habitat resources and a knowledge‐gap regarding the target species habitat requirements. Multi‐season occupancy models, seldom used with invertebrates, offer the opportunity to disentangle the effects of habitat suitability and ...

Limited restoration of plant microbiomes: insights from fungal assemblages of a peatland dominant
Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Plants are not solitary organisms; they host diverse and largely unexplored microbiomes that shape their health, adaptability, and ecosystem roles. Recent environmental sequencing findings have revealed that each plant species harbors a unique fungal assemblage.

Climate benefits of wetland restoration are constrained by slow vegetation recovery
Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Wetland restoration is widely used to enhance ecosystem resilience, biodiversity, and climate mitigation. However, restoring hydrology may not lead to rapid vegetation establishment or reduced greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in severely degraded wetlands.

The EU Nature Restoration Law: a policy framed by instrumental and intrinsic values
Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Social‐ecological restoration has seen increasing recognition in global policy agendas to address interlinked biodiversity, climate, and broader social‐ecological crises. Within this global momentum, the European Union has adopted the Nature Restoration Law (NRL) which is set to shape ecological restoration as an EU priority and ...
