Résumé documentaire — langue originale

Abstract We present a high‐resolution, multi‐proxy record from Mustjärve bog, northwest Estonia, covering the past ∼2,500 years. By integrating paleoecological, historical, and climate data, we evaluate how climate and land use shaped peatland hydrology, vegetation, and carbon dynamics. The record reflects regional land‐use history, confirming the usefulness of peatbogs as archives of land‐use changes. Our profile identifies raised bog hydrology as a part of the surrounding catchment, and we discuss the susceptibility of these ecosystems to climate change. From the start of the record until ca. 700 CE, local agricultural activity was limited. After 700 CE, population growth and deforestation drove ecological instability, marked by reduced carbon accumulation, hydrological change, and increased fire activity. Since ∼1960 CE, drainage has caused a long‐term water table decline and arboreal encroachment. Our results suggest that past land‐use changes have greatly affected the peatland ecosystem at Mustjärve. Despite this, Mustjärve appears to have been very resilient. Although there is no evidence for past critical transitions/thresholds, the current state of the Mustjärve peatland suggests high vulnerability, highlighting the importance of contemporary management practices to prevent further disturbances.
