Abstract Wildfire is the largest disturbance affecting northern peatlands; however, little is known about how burn severity (organic soil depth of burn) alters post‐fire hydrological conditions that control the recovery of keystone peatland mosses (i.e. Sphagnum ). For this reason, we assessed the impact of burn severity on moss water availability by measuring soil tension ( Ψ ) and surface volumetric moisture content ( θ ) in burned and …
