The Effects of Cattle Grazing on the Composition of Diatom Assemblages in the Peatland Pools of the Southeastern Alps (Italy, Adamello-Brenta Nature Park)
Mires are significant C-sinks and important habitats for biodiversity conservation. Particularly in the Alpine peatlands, grazing and trampling cause mires to degrade, causing changes in plant communities that increase bulk density, peat erosion, and nutrient excesses. We took sixteen samples of epi...
