  3. Dear iPhone Autocorrect,

    You and I have had our disagreements but overall have a decent working relationship.

    Remember our falling out over the word FLOOF? We were able to get through it.

    So why now do you insist on telling me that BOG should be BIG? It’s bog, b-o-g. I know the i and o are next to each other but I swear to God, I’m pressing the o.

    In the meantime, here’s a little video of my bog - the marsh marigolds, skunk cabbage, and wonderful bogness.

    Not bigness.

  8. Bog fans! Here's a wonderful video visiting one of those amazing places. Includes cool info by people who know their stuff. #bogs #wetlands

    This is from the Adirondacks, but there's a lot of similarities to my area (thanks to the last ice age).

  11. Raised bog (Ecosystems 🏞️)

    Raised bogs, also called ombrotrophic bogs, are acidic, wet habitats that are poor in mineral salts and are home to flora and fauna that can cope with such extreme conditions. Raised bogs, unlike fens, are exclusively fed by precipitation and from mineral salts introduced from the air. They thus represent a special type of bog, hydrologically, ecologically and in terms of their development hist...

  16. CAM #photosynthesis discovered in carnivorous plants
    phys.org/news/2025-11-cam-phot

    "Most #CarnivorousPlants colonize wet, nutrient-poor habitats such as #bogs or #swamps. One of the few exceptions is the genus #Pinguicula... they thrive on rocky soils that are very dry for at least half of the year... Until now, it was unknown how the #plants compensate for the lack of water and still have enough to produce the sticky mucilage... in CAM, the stomata of the leaves remain closed during the day"

  20. Lagg (landform) (Ecosystems 🏞️)

    A lagg, also called a moat, is the very wet zone on the perimeter of peatland or a bog where water from the adjacent upland collects and flows slowly around the main peat mass.

  23. "There is more carbon stored in peatlands than in all the above-ground vegetation in the world. They account for 3% of landmass, but hold at least 30% of soil carbon. Seventy per cent of the UK’s drinking water starts its journey on peatlands, where the bogs not only filter but also slow water, helping to mitigate flooding. This is why draining, extracting and turning peat into agricultural land has consequences"
