In this overview (introductory article to a special issue including 14 papers), we consider all
main types of natural and artificial inland freshwater habitas (fwh). For each type, we identify …

Conservation and restoration are crucial to maintaining a wide range of functions and
services in wetlands, but it is difficult to find a reasonable and resource-efficient …

Grazing exclusion by fencing is one of the most effective practices to recover the degraded
alpine grasslands in Tibetan Plateau. In the present study, the effects of 8-year (GE8) and 4 …

There is considerable interest in how headwater management may influence downstream
flood peaks in temperate humid regions. However, there is a dearth of data on flow velocities …

Calcareous fens represent an endangered type of peatlands, acting as refugia for stress-
tolerant species in the currently changing landscapes. The resurveys across many regions …

Questions Due to the diverse abiotic conditions and the extensive, early‐autumn, manual
mowing practiced once per few years, Molinia semi‐natural wet meadows are known for …

Multiple measures of plant diversity are vital to understand the response of plant
communities to changing environmental conditions in peatlands. We assessed whether …

An undesired succession of rich fens leads to the formation of dense Sphagnum carpets that
outcompete brown mosses and some vascular plants, resulting in biodiversity loss in fen …

Wet montane meadows are an important component of the Sierra Nevada, CA ecosystem
that provide diverse ecological services when in functional condition. Efforts are underway to …
