Question:

Why are mineotrophic wetlands so god damn productive?

Author: Asger LIndberg-Nielsen

Why are mineotrophic wetlands so god damn productive?



Answer:

Hydrology is why wetlands are so productive. And remember this is swamps and marshes not bogs or fens. They constantly get new nutrients through groundwater, catchment etc. Ombrotrophic - good for storing carbon but over a long period because productivity is low Minerotrophic - high productivity
