Hydrologic Regime and Soil Property Interactions in a Forested Peatland
Globally, peatlands are vulnerable to degradation via drainage, with consequences for ecosystem structure and function such as increased fire vulnerability, soil oxidation, and altered vegetation composition. Peatland function is largely dependent on hydrologic regimes and their influences on the …

Variability and Drivers of Forest Communities at the Great Dismal Swamp
The Great Dismal Swamp (GDS) is a forested peatland located in the Atlantic Coastal Plain. Once a mosaic of wetland communities, disturbances (e.g., timber harvesting and ditching) have resulted in altered hydrologic regime, homogenized forest communities, and increased peat subsidence. In …

Resilience of peaty systems to low-severity wildfires in the Cairngorms
… of fire in peaty systems is critical, because peatlands are the most carbon-dense terrestrial environment, they face an increased fire risk due to shifting fire regimes, and there is a need to understand the current resilience of our landscapes to fire. Peaty systems exist in a broad range of …
