Add to ORKGPeatlands are important sinks for atmospheric carbon (C), yet the role of plant functional types (PFTs) for C sequestration under climatic perturbations is still unclear. A plant removal experiment was used to study the importance of vascular PFTs for the net ecosystem CO2 exchange (NEE) during (i.e. resistance) and after (i.e. recovery) an experimental drought. The removal of PFTs caused a decrease of NEE, but the rate differed between microhabitats (i.e. hummocks and lawns) and the type of PFTs. Ericoid removal had a large effect on NEE in hummocks, while in the lawns the graminoids played a major role. The removal of PFTs did not affect the resistance or the recovery after the experimental drought. We argue that the response of Sphagnum ...
