به خواندن ادامه دهیدPeatlands are wetland ecosystems that accumulate dead organic matter (i.e., peat) when plant litter production outpaces peat decay, usually under conditions of frequent or continuous waterlogging. Collectively, global peatlands store vast amounts of carbon (C), equaling if not exceeding the amount of C in the Earth's vegetation; they also encompass …

به خواندن ادامه دهیدThe formation of some rather shallow mires started in the period from 10 to 3 ka BP. Due to the meandering of the Aare river, the formation of mires was spatio-temporally patchy (Fig. 6). The sites S, P33, S1 and S2 are closer to the lake of Neuchâtel and represent the formation of peat close to a lake that over time lost part of its volume.
به خواندن ادامه دهیدThis chapter examines the organic-rich soil profiles of peat. It first considers the process of peat formation by organic matter through sedentation and sedimentation before comparing the organic versus mineral matter content of peat. It then describes three commonly used techniques for sampling the peat profile: the Russian, Livingston, and ...
به خواندن ادامه دهیدPeat formation is regarded as the landward expression of coastal flooding that, eventually, overtakes and inundates the mire. Depending on the amount of base-level rise, the overlying sediment may consist either of a fully marine, goniatite -bearing, condensed section, or of a brackish lingula -bearing band, or it may be of fresh-water origin.

به خواندن ادامه دهیدPeatlands form by two processes, terrestrialization and paludification (Gorham, 1957; Glaser, 1987).Terrestrialization, or hydrarch succession, involves the filling of a pond or lake with sediment and peat over an extended period of time (Lindeman, 1941; Darlington, 1943) (Figure 7.1).Initially, the pond becomes shallower as sediment and calcareous aquatic …

به خواندن ادامه دهیدThe thick peat surrounding the Old Rhine channel belt caused the position of the river to remain relatively fixed, limiting lateral migration (Makaske, 1998; Van Asselen, 2011). Furthermore, the peat layers enabled the formation of thick natural levées due to high compaction rates of the peat below them (Van Asselen, 2011).
