Product Information

Wood transitional peat transitional peat wood group, in the Botanical composition is from 40 to 85 % of the residues of birch and pine. This complex is part of what was once the largest continuous tract of Blanket bogs across northern England and is particularly important for the quality of the transition it represents between blanket bog and raised mire. Although much of the land has been afforested, significant areas of the original bog remain throughout the forested expanse and these have been selected to represent this habitat type in northern England. The climate is wetter here than in some other parts of northern England, and this is reflected in the composition of the vegetation, which is dominated by species of cottongrass Eriophorum and a reduced cover of heather Calluna vulgaris. At Butterburn Flow the wetter climate is also emphasised by quite distinct surface patterning of Sphagnum hollows separated by Sphagnum ridges in the largest of the open areas. It is a very good example of the Sphagnum-rich cross-leaved heath Erica tetralix and Sphagnum papillosum vegetation type. These extensive peatlands have formed in areas where there is a climate of high rainfall and a low level of evapotranspiration, allowing peat to develop not only in wet hollows but over large expanses of undulating ground.

[ Google Scholar] [ CrossRef] According to Mamedov et al. (2002) [33], ESP reflects soil aggregation. In the current study, the ESP value in the non-amended soil in 2010 was 15.8%, which indicates that swelling was the main mechanism determining its physical properties. In the amended soils, in contrast, ESP values were always <15%, suggesting that dispersion was probably the main mechanism determining their soil properties. Because ESP is inversely related to organic carbon content [13], it was not surprising that the plots with the lowest ESP values (the GSF plots) had the highest organic carbon contents.

Habitat Loss

CEC provides buffering against changes in pH, available nutrients, calcium levels, and soil structure [37]. The organic amendments used in our research led to an increase in soil CEC, especially in the GWC plots. This might have resulted from a high degree of organic matter oxidation in the GWC-amended soil, which could increase CEC values [38]. We also noted that, from 2010 to 2012, the CEC tended to increase in the SP, FR, and GSF plots. This may primarily be due to the long-lasting decomposition process of organic amendments [22].
