  • Ecological monitoring is a key way to understand the processes and dynamics of the response, evolution and function of peatlands in the changing climate, and an internal need for protection, management and ecological restoration of wetlands ecosystem. Testate amoebae are a group of unicellular protists widely distributed in nearly all kinds of habitats, especially in Sphagnum peatlands, which have been widely used as environmental indicators for paleoecological change. PVC (discoloration of polyvinyl chloride) tape was used to monitoring the water level in peatland. Here, investigateld the diversity and abundance of testate amoebae in the subalpine peatlands of West Hubei Province were investigateld. A total of 27 species belonging to 14 genera were identified. The ordination by Redundancy analysis (RDA) implies that the moisture/hydrological conditions (indicated by depth to water table, DWT) are the controlling factors of the testate amoeba community composition. A testate amoebae-based hydrological transfer function is developed, which can be used for the Holocene hydrological reconstruction in peatlands of the region.
