None of them are undisturbed or virgin. Even in the remote areas of northern Brandenburg peatlands suffer from permanent water shortage. They have been drained or show considerable deficiency of water due to human influences in catchment areas. To counteract succession expensive management is implemented since several decades, but necessary funds are threatened to run dry. As a further step to create small scale hideaways for endangered species conservation was focused on topsoil removal within two peatlands. This report presents practical experiences and offers first impressions of vegetation development within these newly developed sites. Two years after the measures altogether 87 vascular plant species and 9 moss species were recorded in the peat cutting areas. The numbers of species within those sites were between 15 and 50. The most frequent species were Phragmites australis, Carex rostrata, C. elata, Juncus articulatus, Utricularia minor, Menyanthes trifoliata, Chara vulgaris und C. intermedia.}, note = { \url {http://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gldocs-11858/7333}}, }
