Excursion guide for the 6th IMCG field symposium in Norway 1994
This guide contains a description of the variations found among the mires in central Norway. The main emphasis is on the hydromorphology, flora and vegetation, but the bird fauna and conservational aspects are also included. The regionality of the vegetation is stressed (5 zones/belts and 5 sections...

Typical mire units are flark fens and sting mixed mires (5), flat fens (6) and blanket bogs (8).
