A Database and Synthesis of Northern Peatland Soil Properties and Holocene Carbon and Nitrogen Accumulation

Julie Loisel, +60 more
- 03 Jul 2014 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present results from the most comprehensive compilation of Holocene peat soil properties with associated carbon and nitrogen accumulation rates for northern peatlands, which consists of 268 peat cores from 215 sites located north of 45°N.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fossil Carbon/Nitrogen Ratios as a Measure of Peat Decomposition

Peter Kuhry, +1 more
- 01 Jan 1996 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the carbon/nitrogen ratios of bulk Sphagnum fuscum peat and its components to calculate the rate and total amount of decay in the deeper anoxic peat deposits.
Journal ArticleDOI

The relationships of vegetation to surface water chemistry and peat chemistry in fens of Alberta, Canada

TL;DR: The relationship between vegetation components, surface water chemistry and peat chemistry from 23 fens in boreal Alberta, Canada, substantiate important differences along the poor to rich fen gradient as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spatial and temporal trends in carbon storage of peatlands of continental western Canada through the Holocene

TL;DR: Peatlands of continental western Canada (Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba) cover 365 157 km2 and store 48.0 Pg of carbon representing 2.1% of the world's terrestrial carbon within 0.25 % of the g...
