"Minnesota scientists test global warming worst case scenarios," a video news report published today by Al Jazeera English, features Associate Professor of Silviculture Marcella Windmuller Campione on the vital role of peat moss in northern peatland ecosystems.
The report centers on the Spruce and Peatland Responses Under Changing Environments (SPRUCE) experiment, currently underway at Marcel Experimental Forest in northern Minnesota, which studies the response of northern peatland ecosystems to the rising temperatures and CO2 concentrations that are expected from climate change.
