Due to the non-vascular nature of Sphagnum mosses, the capitula (growing surface) of the moss must rely solely on capillary action to receive water from beneath. Moss subsides and swells in accordance with water table levels, an effect called “mire

The ecohydrological and biochemical processes responsible for the globally significant stores of carbon in northern peatlands are largely controlled by the soil’s hydrophysical properties, in particular the relationship that soil water tension (ψ)

Highly compressible soil, such as Sphagnum moss and peat, undergo volume change with varying volumetric soil water content (θ) and pressures (ψ), so typical methods for determining unsaturated hydraulic conductivity (Kᵤₙₛₐₜ) in non-compre

Study region This study was conducted in Northern Ontario, Canada, in the middle of the Hudson-James Bay. Lowland: one of the world’s largest wetland complexes. Study focus Northern latitudes are expected to be the most impacted by climate change i

The wetlands of the James Bay Lowland comprise one of largest wetland complexes in the world, in part due to the properties (thickness and hydraulic conductivity) of the marine sediment (MS) that underlay them. Dewatering of an open-pit diamond mine

Snow accumulation and melt between various peatland types in the James Bay Lowlands is poorly understood despite being a significant source of fresh water to the saline James Bay. Many topographical factors that control snow accumulation and melt (e.

The James Bay Lowland host one of the largest wetland complexes in the world in part due to the low permeability of marine sediments that suppress groundwater seepage losses. Dewatering of an open-pit diamond mine in the area has depressurized the re

Snow distribution, ablation and snowmelt energy balance components were characterized in a vacuum harvested and an adjacent undisturbed forested section of a peatland during the 2009 snowmelt period to determine snow distribution and melt dynamics on

Summary The internal water fluxes within Sphagnum mosses critically affect the rate of evaporation and the wetness of the living upper few centimetres of moss (capitula) and the physiological processes (e.g. photosynthesis) that support them. To quan
