ABSTRACT Two stratigraphic records of the late Quaternary vegetation and paleoenvironmental setting of Chiloe Continental, heretofore unstudied, are from (1) a 7.2 m deposit of mire peat at Cuesta Moraga (43025's), dated at 12,310 yr B.P. and interrupted by multiple tephra layers, resting on glacial drift, and (2) a 3-m road cut near Chaiten (42°54'S), 75 km north of Cuesta Moraga, containing a peat bed with wood, dated 11,850 yr B.P., underlying a thick tephra layer and overlying drift. Records are of fossil pollen, spores, and matrix macroremains, loss on ignition, lithology, and ra- diocarbon chronology. There is throughout in the data no indication of fire in predominantly Nothofagus forest com- munities, which during the late-glacial at Chaiten contained, among other tree species, Drimys, Pseudopanax, and Po- docarpus. At Cuesta Moraga, where the forest was relatively open and continued to be open during the Holocene, late- glacial ground cover of Empetrum, Gunnera, and polypodiaceous ferns was supplanted on the mire largely by mi- nerotrophic Cyperaceae until about 8,000 yr B.P.; later, especially after 5,000 yr B.P., ombrotrophic cushion plants, notably Astelia, Donatia, and Tetroncium, with Dacrydium, proliferated on the surface of the mire. -

Peatlands are significant global methane (CH4) sources, but processes governing CH4 dynamics have been predominantly studied on the northern hemisphere. Southern hemispheric and tropical bogs can be dominated by cushion- forming vascular plants (e.g. Astelia pumila, Donatia fascicularis). These cushion bogs are found in many (mostly southern) parts of the world but could also serve as extreme examples for densely rooted northern hemispheric bogs dominated by rushes 20 and sedges. We report highly variable summer CH4 emissions from different microforms in a Patagonian cushion bog as determined by chamber measurements. Driving biogeochemical processes were identified from pore water profiles and carbon isotopic signatures. An intensive root activity within a rhizosphere stretching over 2 m depth accompanied by molecular -1 oxygen release created aerobic microsites in water-saturated peat leading to a thorough CH4 oxidation (< 0.003 mmol L pore 13 -2 -1 water CH4, enriched δ C-CH4 by up to 10‰) and negligible emissions (0.09 ± 0.16 mmol CH4 m d ) from Astelia lawns. -

Biogeography of the Monocotyledon Astelioid Clade (Asparagales): a History of Long-Distance Dispersal and Diversification with Emerging Habitats
Zurich Open Repository and Archive University of Zurich Main Library Strickhofstrasse 39 CH-8057 Zurich www.zora.uzh.ch Year: 2021 Biogeography of the monocotyledon astelioid clade (Asparagales): A history of long-distance dispersal and diversification with emerging habitats Birch, Joanne L ; Kocyan, Alexander Abstract: The astelioid families (Asteliaceae, Blandfordiaceae, Boryaceae, Hypoxidaceae, and Lanari- aceae) have centers of diversity in Australasia and temperate Africa, with secondary centers of diversity in Afromontane Africa, Asia, and Pacific Islands. The global distribution of these families makes this an excellent lineage to test if current distribution patterns are the result of vicariance or long-distance dispersal and to evaluate the roles of tertiary climatic and geological drivers in lineage diversification. Sequence data were generated from five chloroplast regions (petL-psbE, rbcL, rps16-trnK, trnL-trnLF, trnS-trnSG) for 104 ingroup species sampled across global diversity. The astelioid phylogeny was inferred using maximum parsimony, maximum likelihood, and Bayesian inference methods. Divergence dates were estimated with a relaxed clock applied in BEAST. Ancestral ranges were reconstructed in ’BioGeoBEARS’ applying the corrected Akaike information criterion to test for the best-fit biogeographic model. Diver- sification rates were estimated in Bayesian Analysis of Macroevolutionary Mixtures [BAMM]. Astelioid relationships were inferred as Boryaceae(Blandfordiaceae(Asteliaceae(Hypoxidaceae plus Lanariaceae))). The crown astelioid node was dated to the Late Cretaceous (75.2 million years; 95% highest posterior densities interval 61.0-90.0 million years) with an inferred Eastern Gondwanan origin. However, aste- lioid speciation events have not been shaped by Gondwanan vicariance. Rather long-distance dispersal since the Eocene is inferred to account for current distributions. -

Physical Growing Media Characteristics of Sphagnum Biomass Dominated by Sphagnum Fuscum (Schimp.) Klinggr
Physical growing media characteristics of Sphagnum biomass dominated by Sphagnum fuscum (Schimp.) Klinggr. A. Kämäräinen1, A. Simojoki2, L. Lindén1, K. Jokinen3 and N. Silvan4 1 Department of Agricultural Sciences, University of Helsinki, Finland 2 Department of Food and Environmental Sciences, University of Helsinki, Finland 3 Natural Resources Institute Finland, Natural Resources and Bioproduction, Helsinki, Finland 4 Natural Resources Institute Finland, Bio-based Business and Industry, Parkano, Finland _______________________________________________________________________________________ SUMMARY The surface biomass of moss dominated by Sphagnum fuscum (Schimp.) Klinggr. (Rusty Bog-moss) was harvested from a sparsely drained raised bog. Physical properties of the Sphagnum moss were determined and compared with those of weakly and moderately decomposed peats. Water retention curves (WRC) and saturated hydraulic conductivities (Ks) are reported for samples of Sphagnum moss with natural structure, as well as for samples that were cut to selected fibre lengths or compacted to different bulk densities. The gravimetric water retention results indicate that, on a dry mass basis, Sphagnum moss can hold more water than both types of peat under equal matric potentials. On a volumetric basis, the water retention of Sphagnum moss can be linearly increased by compacting at a gravimetric water content of 2 (g water / g dry mass). The bimodal water retention curve of Sphagnum moss appears to be a consequence of the natural double porosity of the moss matrix. The 6-parameter form of the double-porosity van Genuchten equation is used to describe the volumetric water retention of the moss as its bulk density increases. Our results provide considerable insight into the physical growing media properties of Sphagnum moss biomass. -
