Hydrologic and topographic analyses of bog turtle (Glyptemys muhlenbergii) wetlands
Bog turtles (Glyptemys muhlenbergii), a federally threatened species, depend on mountain wetland seeps to support their habitat needs. Bog turtles have been found to predominantly use saturated soil areas, making them highly sensitive to small changes in wetland hydrology. Recent research …

A Bog Approach: An Ethnography, Or, An Anthropology Of Climate Emergency
… actors intersect on “The Flow Country” blanket bogs in the far north of Scotland. The Flow Country is the premier site of the UK’s large scale “forest-to-bog” peatland restoration project, one of the few “natural climate solutions” enacted and institutionalized. My fieldwork (2017-2018) …

Carbon fluxes at an upland blanket bog in the north Pennines
The peat soils found in blanket bogs are significant stores of carbon. The degree to which these ecosystems are currently functioning as sinks or sources of carbon is not clear. There is a paucity of measurements from suitable sites but the available evidence suggests that certain sites might be …

Bog in a Box: Is Long Term Peat Storage for Future Restoration Viable?
… an archipelago densely covered in blanket bog which form the most northerly reach of the UK. In an attempt to mitigate for the damage, it was decided that all 672,000 m3 of peat had to excavated would be stored in purpose built wet storage for use in future reinstatement, a novel idea not …

Wetland hydrology and soils as components of Virginia bog turtle (Glyptemys muhlenbergii) habitat
… some of the largest drops in population. The bog turtle (Glyptemys muhlenbergii) is considered one of the rarest North American turtle species, and this rarity is made more severe by anthropogenic factors. The wetland habitats that are used by bog turtles contain seepage areas and soil …

The Habitat Ecology of Bog Turtles (<i>clemmys Muhlenbergii</i>) in Southwestern Virginia
I radiotracked 31 bog turtles (<i>Clemmys muhlenbergii</i>) from May 1995 to December 1996 at 4 study areas in southwestern Virginia. Radio location data were used to provide measures of annual activity, spatial distributions of animals, and habitat selection. The techniques I used in this study …

Spatially variable hydrologic regimes in relation to bog turtle (Glyptemys muhlenbergii) population density
Bog turtles (Glyptemys muhlenbergii) are a small freshwater turtle ranging east of the Appalachian Mountains from New York to Georgia, in small, patchily distributed (<10ha) groundwater fed wetlands. Despite their name, these wetlands are more appropriately identified as seep meadows or fens owing …

FROM TURF TO TURF: FUNGAL INVASION OF ASCOCORYNE TURFICOLA IN A NORTHERN MICHIGAN BOG
… within the United States. It is an obligate bog fungus native to Europe and Siberia, where it is extremely rare across most of its range. <em>A. turficola</em> appeared at Lily Pond Bog in Marquette, Michigan (87.47º W, 46.59º N) in 2019, almost contemporaneous with anecdotal reports in …

The effects of bog restoration in formerly afforested peatlands on water quality and aquatic carbon fluxes
The restoration of drained, afforested blanket bogs (forest-to-bog restoration) is an increasing management practice, due to recognition of both the nature conservation and carbon sequestration services provided by peatlands. Forest-to-bog restoration involves conifer felling (and harvesting) along …

Assessing Changes in Bog Turtle (Glyptemys muhlenbergii) Population Abundance and Factors Influencing Nest Predation in Virginia
… species classified as threatened or worse. Bog turtles (Glyptemys muhlenbergii), are among the most imperiled of North American freshwater turtles. These small, secretive turtles have declined by up to 90% in parts of their range, which consists of the Northern Population and the Southern …

Bog Turtle Distribution in Virginia: Assessing Proposed Methods for Finding New Localities and Examining Movement Between Wetlands
… most threatened groups of taxa globally, and the bog turtle, Glyptemys muhlenbergii is among the most imperiled in North America. In Virginia, USA, bog turtles are restricted to occupying Appalachian Mountain fens. Fens are naturally small and fragmented wetlands characterized by elevated water …

Effects of Water Table Depth and Edaphic Characteristics on Plant Diversity in a Southern Mississippi Pitcher Plant Bog
… and species composition within pitcher plant bogs across seasons. Eight piezometers were installed at random distances to monitor long-term water table depth and pressure fluctuations along a ~710-meter line transect traversing upland and bog habitats. Vegetation sampling quadrats (n=128) were …
