Reintroduction of fen plant communities on a degraded minerotrophic peatland
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We have developed an approach to restore bogs after peat extraction, but, when sedge-peat layers are exposed, the minerotrophic remnant peat conditions require restoration towards a fen ecosystem. Three restoration techniques, all including rewetting actions, were tested to assist fen vegetation recovery. None of the restoration techniques were effective at establishing fen bryophytes. However, for vascular plants, two techniques gave promising results in terms of species composition, although the vascular plant cover remained lower than in the reference fens. Depending on the site conditions, we suggest applying two restoration techniques to restore peatlands in areas of exposed sedge peat. In areas where sparse cover of fen species may have spontaneously established, rewetting should be carried out to raise water levels and create favourable conditions for their expansion. In areas covered with undesirable species or with inadequate topography for rewetting, surface peat should be remodeled and vegetation introduced. Since mechanized diaspore transfer did not result in a satisfactory cover of fen plants, other means of introduction could be considered, alone or in combination. A complementary fertilization experiment showed that fertilization with phosphorus could be an effective solution to enhance the establishment of mechanically introduced plant diaspores.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
