Depth to water table (DWT, in cm) inferred (using the transfer function model from Engadine [40]) from testate amoeba communities of different origins (hummock, lawn and pool) placed in different local conditions (D dry, M moist, W wet) and sampled at T0 (August 2008), T1 (May 2009) and T2 (August 2009) in the experimental plots of Le Russey bog, French Jura. Average measured DWT was 31.8, 19.5 and 9.0 cm in the dry, moist and wet positions, respectively. Data from non-seeded communities (see Supplementary Figure 4 for corresponding figure showing seeded community data). The symbols represent the different replicates
