Anthropogenic Causes of Peatland Species Vanishing in the Glinno Ługi Area [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The paper presents information about the occurrence and state of preservation of valuable peat-bog species as well as about the threats facing them. The anthropopressure-related changes which occurred in the habitat of the Glinno Ługi peatland and their ...

Restoration of Degraded Boreal Peatlands [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Even though Sphagnum mosses are not easy plants to manipulate on artificial substrates or in nonnatural environments, it is possible to revegetate large expanses of cutover peatland at a relatively low cost (in the range of US $900–1400 per hectare). Only long term monitoring of the current restoration projects will confirm if it is possible to restore

Variation in the Soil Prokaryotic Community Under Simulated Warming and Rainfall Reduction in Different Water Table Peatlands of the Zoige Plateau

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Climate change and water table drawdown impact the community structure and diversity of peatland soil prokaryotes. Nonetheless, how soil prokaryotes of different water tables respond to climate change remains largely unknown.

The effectiveness of canal blocking for hydrological restoration in tropical peatland [PDF]

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2019
The Peatland Restoration Agency of the Republic of Indonesia (BRG-RI), an agency that is mandated to restore 2 million hectares of degraded peatland by 2020, has developed a 3-R approach towards tackling the problem based on the program of rewetting ...

Characterizing subsidence in used and restored peatland with Sentinel SAR data

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2023
Peatland is a fragile ecosystem in the tropical region which is prone to subsidence. Until now, there is still lack of procedure to rapidly assess a tropical peatland subsidence in a large area.

Moth responses to forest-to-bog restoration [PDF]

open access: yesMires and Peat, 2020
The responses of peatland invertebrates to land use changes and associated effects of peatland degradation are not well known, particularly for diverse and species-rich taxa such as moths.

Ascertaining the nature and timing of mire degradation : using palaeoecology to assist future conservation management in Northern England [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
This study was initiated under contract VT0419 from English Nature (Natural England) to CECQR. In 2015, additional funding was provided by the Yorkshire Peat Partnership, for 210Pb dating, to refine age–depth estimates.

More field-based carbon monitoring of tropical peatland restoration is urgently needed: findings from a systematic literature review [PDF]

open access: yesMires and Peat
The tropical peatland degradation crisis in Southeast Asia has triggered a surge in peatland restoration activity to reduce carbon emissions caused by biological oxidation of dry peat and recurrent peat fires.

Drained and forgotten peat extraction sites: economic and carbon impacts of peat and water loss in spontaneously forested Lithuanian peatlands

open access: yesPrzegląd Naukowy Inżynieria i Kształtowanie Środowiska
This study examines the condition and environmental impact of abandoned peatland quarries in Lithuania. Using spatial data and field investigations, we identified 33 abandoned peat quarry sites covering over 3,854 ha, which were abandoned between 1940 ...
