What is succession and how do bogs and fens illustrate this process? --&gt;<br /> [[File:Bog succession 1.png|thumb|500px|right]]<br /> [[File:Bog succession 2.png|thumb|500px|right]]<br /> [[File:Bog succession 3.png|thumb|500px|right]]<br /> [[File:Bog succession 4.png|thumb|500px|right]]<br /> Bogs and Fens are both sources of peat and have a floating mat of vegetation. The major difference has to do with the water source. Bogs are closed systems that have no connection to groundwater sources, Fens are open systems that depend on a groundwater source (springs). Fens are less acidic, have more nutrients and support a more diverse community of plants and animals. For a fen, the mat of vegetation is composed of herbs and grasses such as Tussock Grass.</div>
