Sphagnum bleaching: Bicarbonate ‘toxicity’ and tolerance for seven Sphagnum species [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Biology, 2022
Abstract Growth and functioning of Sphagnum mosses are closely linked to water level and chemistry. Sphagnum mosses occur in wet, generally acidic conditions, and when buffered, alkaline water is known to negatively impact Sphagnum. The effects of time, dose and species‐specific responses of buffered, alkaline water on Sphagnum are largely unknown ...

Development of photocatalysis‐membrane separation reactor systems for aqueous pollutant removal

open access: yesPhotoMat, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Background In our rapidly expanding society, the demand for clean water has steadily emerged as one of the most critical issues, promoting the development of numerous water treatment strategies. Aims Coupling photocatalysis and membrane separation technology provides an energy saving and environment‐friendly as well as sustainable method for ...

Water Table Fluctuation in Peatlands Facilitates Fungal Proliferation, Impedes Sphagnum Growth and Accelerates Decomposition

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
Northern peatlands are substantial carbon sinks because organic matter in peat is highly stable due to the low rate of decomposition. Waterlogged anaerobic conditions induce accumulation of Sphagnum-derived phenolic compounds that inhibit peat organic ...

Paludiculture on former bog grassland: Profitability of Sphagnum farming in North West Germany [PDF]

open access: yesMires and Peat, 2020
Sphagnum farming provides an alternative to detrimental peatland drainage in two ways. Firstly, Sphagnum mosses are cultivated on rewetted peatlands. Secondly, Sphagnum biomass is a high-quality growing media constituent suitable for replacing peat in ...

Sphagnum restoration on degraded blanket and raised bogs in the UK using micropropagated source material: a review of progress [PDF]

open access: yesMires and Peat, 2018
There is a growing demand for a supply of Sphagnum to re-introduce to degraded peatlands. However, available supplies of Sphagnum of the desired species are often limited. We describe the propagation of Sphagnum from vegetative material in sterile tissue

Nitrogen addition turns a temperate peatland from a near-zero source into a strong sink of nitrous oxide

open access: yesPlant, Soil and Environment, 2022
Peatlands, as important global nitrogen (N) pools, are potential sources of nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions. We measured N2O flux dynamics in Hani peatland in a growing season with simulating warming and N addition for 12 years in the Changbai Mountains ...

Effect of repeated mowing to reduce graminoid plant cover on the moss carpet at a Sphagnum farm in North America [PDF]

open access: yesMires and Peat, 2017
Sphagnum farming is defined as the sustainable production of non-decomposed Sphagnum biomass on a cyclical and renewable basis. In this article, the influence and necessity of mowing graminoid plants to optimise Sphagnum growth in Sphagnum farming basins

Sphagnum regrowth after cutting [PDF]

open access: yesMires and Peat, 2018
Sphagnum biomass is commercially harvested from semi-natural and natural peatlands. In this article we analyse the effects of harvesting Sphagnum by cutting off the top parts of the plants and leaving the cut stems to regenerate.

ANALYSIS OF THE DISTRIBUTION RANGES OF THE SPHAGNUM RECURVUM COMPLEX SPECIES IN THE EAST EUROPEAN PLAIN AND EASTERN FENNOSCANDIA

open access: yesTransactions of the Karelian Research Centre of the Russian Academy of Sciences, 2018
Sphagnum angustifolium, S. fallax, S. flexuosum belong to the Sphagnum recurvum complex. Previously, S. balticum had been included in this group, too. The species distribution ranges across the East European Plain and Eastern Fennoscandia were analyzed ...
