The Effect of Long-Term Drainage on Plant Community Composition, Biomass, and Productivity in Boreal Continental Peatlands
This thesis is an investigation of the effects of long-term drainage on plant community composition, biomass and productivity in boreal continental peatlands. Because bogs are ombrotrophic, I hypothesized that bog plant community composition, biomass and productivity would be affected by drainage l...
