Summary Groundwater–peatland interactions were assessed by a regional survey in the Hudson Bay Lowlands, where the rapid rate of isostatic uplift has perturbed hydrological flow systems across a 6000‐year chronosequence. A 24 000 km 2 study area along the Albany River consists of 55% fen, 35% bog an...
