TL;DR: In this paper, the authors summarized the results of several research groups participating in the research programme "Greenhouse Impacts of the use of Peat and Peatlands in Finland", and presented emission factors for peat-atmosphere fluxes of CO 2, CH 4, and N 2 O, filling gaps in knowledge concerning the afforestation of organic croplands and cutaways, and improving the emission assessment of peatlands drained for forestry.

Vegetation is the main factor in nutrient retention in a constructed wetland buffer
TL;DR: In this paper, the retention capacity of N and P of wetland vegetation comparing the control area with two experimental areas within one site within one growing season (ca. 150 d) was investigated.

Effects of water level and nutrients on spatial distribution of soil mesofauna in peatlands drained for forestry in Finland
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the within-site distribution of Enchytraeidae, Collembola, Oribatida, Mesostigmata and Prostigmata relative to varying water level and substrate quality on pine mire sites forming a drainage succession continuum.

Microbial immobilisation of added nitrogen and phosphorus in constructed wetland buffer
TL;DR: In this paper, the dynamics of soil microbial C, N and P in response to NO 3 − and PO 4 3− addition were investigated and quantified in a constructed wetland buffer zone divided into three experimental areas.
