HIGHLIGHTS
SUMMARY
Ombrotrophic (rain-fed) peat bogs are characterized by high water table, acidic nutrient-poor conditions and dominance of Sphagnum mosses and occur in the boreal and temperate zone on most continents. The second major gradient in bogs is the ground water level, driven by the micro-topography of hummocks and hollows, which gives bogs their characteristic patterning and which is linked to hydrology and carbon sequestration. At a site level, the diversity patterns of mites are influenced by the same gradients that are recognized as richness drivers for broader groups of bog organisms, such . . .
