Effects of environment on the growth of Sphagnum
Experiments were made to determine the effect both of shading and of the level of the water-table on the growth of S~hagnum. Growth in mass is reduced by shading but is little affected by water level. Growth in length is greatest with high water levels and reaches a peak when about 80% of the incide...
