Extended Data Fig. 3: Inferring morphology of bogs with incomplete elevation data.

From: A unified explanation for the morphology of raised peatlands

Extended Data Fig. 3

a, Milot: available elevation data exclude southeast corner of bog. b, Mendaram: elevation data end at national boundary. c, Rivers bounding Mendaram bog are obscured by floating vegetation but visible in high-resolution images. d, Estimated bog crest (groundwater divide) and flowlines used as no-flow (Neumann) boundaries. The location of the groundwater divide was estimated from available elevation data and the larger topographic setting (b). Satellite images: CNES/Airbus, Google, Maxar Technologies.
