Model of Complex Blanket Bog Improves Prediction of Peat Expansion

The location of the modeled transect at Allt Dubh that contains many of the topographic features typical of blanket peatlands. These features affect the movement and storage of water (complex concave and convex slopes and depressions) that make it suitable for testing Tom Winter’s conceptual model ( Winter, 2000 ).
