Rapid loss of an ecosystem engineer: Sphagnum decline in an experimentally warmed bog
Sphagnum mosses are keystone components of peatland ecosystems. They facilitate the
accumulation of carbon in peat deposits, but climate change is predicted to expose peatland …

Environmental drivers of Sphagnum growth in peatlands across the Holarctic region
The relative importance of global versus local environmental factors for growth and thus
carbon uptake of the bryophyte genus Sphagnum—the main peat‐former and ecosystem …

Latitude, elevation, and mean annual temperature predict peat organic matter chemistry at a global scale
Peatlands contain a significant fraction of global soil carbon, but how these reservoirs will
respond to the changing climate is still relatively unknown. A global picture of the variations …

Checklist of oribatid mites (Acari: Oribatida) from peatlands in the United States with notes on oribatid mites from a bog in Minnesota
Peatlands are important ecosystems for carbon storage worldwide and often contain unique
species. Oribatid mites are the dominant soil arthropods in terrestrial systems like peatlands …

Temporal and spatial variation in peatland carbon cycling and implications for interpreting responses of an ecosystem‐scale warming experiment
Core Ideas We compared spatial vs. temporal variation in C cycle processes and drivers in a
bog. The bog was indistinguishable as a C source or sink because of high spatial variation …
