Vegetation data were collected in 27 burned rich peatlands along an chronosequence of fire age (2011 (n=10), 2014 (n=14), 2015 (n=4)) and 18 natural peatlands for reference during June and July 2016. Percentages of cover of bryophytes and vascular were evaluated by group and for all the species. Mea...
