[edit] Free-floating Muskeg

I think this article sohuld meniton the phenomenom of pieces of floating Muskeg breaking off and floating out into the water, forming small floating islands. Does anyone know if this phenomenom has a name? When I was younger I lived near a lake which had an extensive floating muskeg at one either end, and seasonal winds would cause independent pieces of the muskeg to float from one end of the lake to the other.
