The influence of peat volume change and vegetation on the hydrology of a kettle-hole wetland in Southern Ontario, Canada

Links between local hydrology and vegetation type exist in wetlands, yet it is unclear what role peat volume change plays in these interactions. We measured peat volume change and hydraulic conductivity (Kfield) at three contrasting sites located on the quaking vegetation mat of a kettle-hole peatla...
