Published in 2020 at "Earth Surface Processes and Landforms"

DOI: 10.1002/esp.4956

Abstract: Large numbers of peatlands were developed in volcanic landform regions, which would provide valuable long‐term records of lake–mire ecosystem shifts and act as significant carbon pool in regional carbon cycle. To investigate lake–mire ecosystem transformations… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Experimental and Applied Acarology"

DOI: 10.1007/s10493-018-0332-1

Abstract: We investigated oribatid mite communities in a Sphagnum-dominated boreal peatland system characterised by a mosaic of oligotrophic and meso-eutrophic areas. We aimed to determine the relative importance of environmental factors (pH, Sphagnum nutrient content, water… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Journal of Paleolimnology"

DOI: 10.1007/s10933-019-00081-5

Abstract: The composition of Chironomidae communities and the ecological significance of such assemblages in peatlands have received little attention, especially in subtropical alpine regions. We report on the spatial distribution of subfossil chironomids and environmental controls… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Chinese Geographical Science"

DOI: 10.1007/s11769-018-1000-4

Abstract: To examine the effects of microtopography on the stoichiometry of carbon (C), nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) in mosses along the hummock-hollow gradient in boreal peatlands, we investigated species-level C׃N, C׃P and N׃P ratios of… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Environmental Earth Sciences"

DOI: 10.1007/s12665-017-6869-1

Abstract: The paper presents the degree of subsidence in stratigraphic transects and a change in soil morphology. The degree of subsidence was determined based on direct geodetic measurements taken in 1974 and 2012 and additionally with… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Wetlands"

DOI: 10.1007/s13157-019-01176-5

Abstract: In a controlled field experiment, we tested the effect of plant biodiversity on carbon accumulation in a formerly-extracted peatland that was rewetted and re-vegetated. We monitored carbon fluxes in experimental units re-vegetated with different numbers… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Catena"

DOI: 10.1016/j.catena.2021.105478

Abstract: Abstract A large quantity of carbon (C) storage in peatland soils plays an important role in global C cycling. Microbial resource limitation and environmental factors can drive C cycling. However, the microbial resource limitation and… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Chemosphere"

DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2021.130501

Abstract: Phosphorus (P) is an essential nutrient, limiting plant growth and microbial activity in many ecosystems. However, a few studies have been conducted to investigate P dynamics and the factors driving P dynamics in peatland soils.… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Ecological Engineering"

DOI: 10.1016/j.ecoleng.2015.11.049

Abstract: Abstract Combining peatland rewetting with biomass cropping (paludiculture) is one strategy to remove nutrient surpluses from soil/water and stimulate peat-forming vegetation. This approach was tested in the Massaciuccoli Lake Basin (Tuscany, Italy), a coastal floodplain… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "European journal of protistology"

DOI: 10.1016/j.ejop.2017.09.004

Abstract: Testate amoebae are widely used in ecological and palaeoecological studies of peatlands, particularly as indicators of surface wetness. To ensure data are robust and comparable it is important to consider methodological factors which may affect… read more here.
