divinum vs. Sphagnum medium

Nää möyheät punaiset rahkasammalet erotettiin jossain vaiheessa niin, että suht samannäköiset punaterä- ja punarahkasammal ovat nyt S. divinum ja S. medium. On ne kuitenkin aika erinäköisiäkin. Punaterällä on suipommat haarat ja punarahkasammal on pötkömäinen ja typäkkä. (Pelkkiin värieroihin ei voi takertua, kun osa rahkasammalista on suunnilleen sitä väriä kuin niitä sattuu missäkin kasvupaikassa huvittamaan.)

Yesterday, we shared our research with the Dutch TV show @vroegevogels in a new episode about the Fochteloërveen.
Lots of fun searching for , discussing dynamics and drought effects with @yvettelgenkamp@twitter.com.

Thanks to @JacobdeBruin@twitter.com @Natuurmonumenten for the introductions.

Some for your delectation. I mounted the two baby ones on cork slabs today. In order of appearance:
Platycerium bifurcatum
Platycerium alcicorne
Platycerium superbum

Look at how this gully block has become colonised by sphagnum, blending into the environment as well as retaining water on the moors.

in two tones from the fall field season: Golden-brown hues of Sphagnum compactum on a seepy ledge in neUS; ruby-red of Sphagnum rubellum in a nearby bog. Such sn amazing & globally-significant genus!

Watering duty! mosses like it wet. We simulate rainfall using tailor-made devices every couple of days to keep our happy in preparation of a experiment that will start in January. PhD student Yvet Telekamp who leads this study invented these 'peat-showers'.
We will test how a history of drought and deposition influences the resilience of against sever summer droughts.

are not only beautiful, but they are powerful and clever for their size. They are the world's most efficient sponges, can thwart microbial decomposition, and highjack whole-ecosystem budgets. With more locked away in Sphagnum biomass than any other plant genus, these mosses are true heroes. to

Blicken wir genauer in einige Mooslebensräume und beginnen mit den Mooren. Sie gehören zu den Biotopen, die von Moosen selbst aufgebaut werden. Torfmoose () bilden über Jahhunderte hinweg eine meterdicke und stetig anwachsende Torfdecke, das so genannte . Ein immenser Co2 und Wasserspeicher! Neben einer Reihe spezieller Torfmoose gibt es andere , die sich an das Leben im Hochmoor angepasst haben. Infos zu den Arten gibt's in den Bildern. 😀

()! Ihre Vielfalt in 4 Bildern wiederzugeben ist schier unmöglich. Es gibt sie in dick, dünn, groß, klein, grün, rot, gelb, braun, violett, in Wäldern, Mooren, an Ufern und an Bächen. Sie bilden mit den Mooren ihre eigenen Ökosysteme, die neben Unmengen an Wasser auch Co2 speichern können. Es sollte unser oberstes Ziel sein ihre Vielfalt zu erhalten und uns an ihnen zu erfreuen. Sie sind Klimaretter und Kunstwerke!
