In the boreal zone, surface waters mostly receive external organic matter (OM) from surrounding peatlands. The lake’s biological communities may respond to changes in OM inputs caused by anthropogenic activities in the catchment. Testate amoebae (TA) possess an outer shell that preserves well in lake sediments and are commonly used in paleo-environmental studies. Additionally, they fall into the size range of particles transported from peatlands to lakes, making them potential particle tracers. Here, we compared TA communities of current and pre-peat extraction sediments from lakes receiving OM only from peat extraction areas (impact lakes) with lakes receiving OM from peatlands under other uses (control lakes). We found no differences between control and impact lakes, neither between current and pre-peat extraction. In conclusion, there is either no significant increase in the amount of organic matter discharge from peatland areas, or dislodged testate amoeba are retained in areas upstream of the lakes.

Testate amoebae community analysis as a tool to assess biological impacts of peatland use
Daza Secco, Emmanuella; Haimi, Jari; Högmander, Harri; Taskinen, Sara; Niku, Jenni; Meissner, Kristian (Springer Netherlands, 2018)As most ecosystems, peatlands have been heavily exploited for different human purposes. For example, in Finland the majority is under forestry, agriculture or peat mining use. Peatlands play an important role in carbon ... -
Coupling of iron and dissolved organic matter in lakes–selective retention of different size fractions
Riise, Gunnhild; Haaland, Ståle Leif; Xiao, Yihua (Springer, 2023)Increasing concentration of iron (Fe) is observed in many boreal lakes, such as for the present study in Oslo Østmark, SE-Norway (1983–2018). As Fe-regulating processes are complex and dynamic, the link between mobilizing ... -
Turvemaiden maankäytön vaikutukset kuoriameebayhteisöihin
Oikarinen, Päivi (2013)Turvemaiden maankäytöllä on todettu olevan monenlaisia ympäristövaikutuksia, kuten esimerkiksi kasvihuoneilmiötä vauhdittavat kaasupäästöt (esim. CO2 & CH4), turvetuotannon vesistövaikutukset ja turpeenpolton päästöt. ... -
Disentangling the effects of methanogen community and environment on peatland greenhouse gas production by a reciprocal transplant experiment
Juottonen, Heli (Wiley-Blackwell, 2020)Northern peatlands consist of a mosaic of peatland types that vary spatially and temporally and differ in their methane (CH4) production. Microbial community composition and environment both potentially control the processes ... -
Sunlit surface waters : exploring the photochemical reactivity of dissolved organic carbon
Gu, Yufei (University of Jyväskylä, 2017)In surface waters, solar radiation can photochemically mineralise the dissolved organic carbon (DOC, a measure of dissolved organic matter, DOM) to dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC). This DIC photoproduction constitutes ...
