At sites undergoing paludification, litter can accumulate to great thicknesses, as soils become increasingly colder, wetter, and nutrient-poor.

Diploscapter coronatas and Poikilolaimus oxycerca are two of the most saprobic species.

Having donned our PPE, we walk through the site to the prefab that controls access to the tunnel.

Have mercy on the poor and assist them if you can.
