A study was carried out to determine the feasibility of such peatland revitalisation and the best way of implementing it. The re-establishment of a near-natural water regime is by far the most important step in the successful revitalisation of the „Moos“. In fact Modern Melioration, properly managed, has the potential to become an important tool in the conservation of both landscape and nature. %U http://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gldocs-11858/7334 %~ FID GEO-LEO e-docs
