Not diving into depth was by design: the principles and practices of stream restoration are vastly different than what is required to restore prairie ecosystems, for example. Consider just one of the three ecosystems, and associa...

Characteristics of Sphagnum MossesFrom Fritz et al. (2014): Bogs (ombrotrophic peatlands, i.e. predominantly fed by rainwater, from Greek ombros, rain, and trephein, to feed) are exceptional ecosystems that may show high storage rates for nutrients and carbon, while nutrient availability is very low due to ombrotrophic conditions (water and nutrient input solely by rain) limiting the growth of vascular plants. A set of traits, unique to Sphag...
