The lagg of a raised bog is a transition zone where runoff collects from the ombrotrophic
(rain-fed) bog and adjacent mineral soils. Distinct hydrological and hydrochemical gradients …

Aapa mires are boreal peatland complexes comprised of wet, typically patterned fens in the
center and Sphagnum bog vegetation at the margins. Their distribution is controlled by …

Boreal peatlands represent a biogeochemically unique and diverse environment in high-
latitude landscape. They represent a long-term globally significant sink for carbon dioxide …

Northern aapa mire complexes are characterized by patterned fens with flarks (wet fen
surfaces) and bog zone margins with Sphagnum moss cover. Evidence exists of a recent …

Hydrological changes due to drainage and climate warming can have great impact on the
ecosystem balance of boreal mires. The possibility of ombrotrophication, ie the development …

There is fine-scale spatial heterogeneity in key vegetation properties including leaf-area
index (LAI) and biomass in treeless northern peatlands, and hyperspectral drone data with …

Isotopic data provide powerful constraints on regional and global methane emissions and
their source profiles. However, inverse modeling of spatially resolved methane flux is …

Aapa mires are waterlogged northern peatland ecosystems characterized by a patterned
surface structure where water‐filled depressions ('flarks') alternate with drier hummock …

Half of the Finnish peatland area is drained for forestry. The remaining undrained peatlands
are not all pristine, because surrounding drainage may disturb their hydrology. This …

A process-based model was developed and validated to predict the regional dynamics of
the water table (WT) in peatlands under climatic forcing. The model detailed the water …
