Short summary
Simulations of peatland rewetting in Sweden under various conditions of climate, local hydrology, and rewetting practices showed insubstantial changes in landscape flow extremes due to mixing with runoff from various landcovers. The impacts on local hydrological extremes are governed by groundwater levels prior to rewetting and reduced tree cover; hence wetland allocation and management practices are crucial if the purpose is to reduce flow extremes in peatland streams.
