Proud moment here, I started to work on this data during my PhD in 2016 and now almost 10 years later, this paper is published.
✨ New open-access publication! ✨
This study sets a benchmark for defining reference ecosystems in Sphagnum-dominated #peatlands of Eastern Canada, analyzing 168 peatlands to describe #bryophyte habitats.

Red peat mosses never get old... 😍
Had a fantastic day in the field with colleagues from practice and science, sharing experiences on #bog #restoration.
Fresh air, feet amongst living #Sphagnum, a flock (!) of eagles overhead: It doesn't get any better than this!

Versuch: Können Moore schneller wiederbelebt werden? Forschenden pflanzen Torfmoose im Königsmoor an
Die Moose wachsen normalerweise sehr langsam. Forschende wollen die Renaturierung durch den Versuch beschleunigen.
