Field erosion by wind as indicated by fluctuations in the ash content of Sphagnum peat
The ash content curves for three Sphagnum peat profiles were correlated with those for Cerealia and the natural indicators of bare mineral soil. The fluctuations in the ash values seem to indicate erosion of fields by wind as a result of tilling and other activities in cultivated fields. The increas...
