Canadian Press: New research from an Ontario professor indicates that bogs dried for logging or other purposes can experience catastrophic deep burns that can last for months and contribute to the spread of wildfires in both Canada and northern Europe. But Mike Waddington of McMaster University says his research, published Monday in Nature Scientific Reports, also shows peat bogs -- wetlands with dead plant material and mosses -- can be restored through "re-wetting," which can help mitigate the spread of fires...
