torfowych

Torfowych is a Polish adjective meaning peat-related. It is derived from torf (peat) with the adjectival suffix -owy, and it forms various inflections to agree with the noun it modifies. The form torfowych appears in the genitive plural and locative plural, for example in phrases such as gleby torfowych (peat soils) or na torfowych mokradłach (on peat wetlands).

In ecology and geology, the root noun is torf, used to describe materials, habitats and processes associated with peat. The term torfowiska refers to peatlands, wetlands characterized by accumulation of partially decomposed plant material under waterlogged conditions. Peat soils, or gleby torfowe, are acidic, organic-rich soils formed by long-term peat accumulation. These systems store large amounts of carbon and support specialized flora and fauna; they are sensitive to drainage, land use change, and climate variations, factors that can alter peat formation and release stored carbon.

The word torfowych appears in scientific, geographic and agricultural texts whenever peat-related nouns are required in plural forms. Related terms include torf (peat), torfowiec (peat moss), and torfowisko or gleby torfowe (peatlands, peat soils).
