Low-impact Line Construction Retains and Speeds Recovery of Trees on Seismic Lines in Forested Peatlands
Resource
Seismic lines, linear features originating from the oil and gas industry for energy exploration, pose a substantial management challenge due to their collective impact on biogeochemical cycles, plant...
Peat Loss Collocates with a Threshold in Plant–Mycorrhizal Associations in Drained Peatlands Encroached by Trees
Resource
Drainage-induced encroachment by trees may have major effects on the carbon balance of northern peatlands, and responses of microbial communities are likely to play a central mechanistic role. We...
The Vegetation of Fens in Relation to Their Hydrology and Nutrient Dynamics: A Case Study
Resource
Species-rich quaking fens have become rare in Western Europe. In Great Britain, Germany and The Netherlands they have been drained and turned into agricultural land. In The Netherlands small fens have...
Wetland Functioning in Relation to Biodiversity Conservation and Restoration
Resource
Wetland ecosystems are a natural resource of global significance. Historically, their high level of plant and animal (especially bird) diversity is perhaps the major reason why wetland protection has...
