A simple field method for estimating the mass of organic carbon stored in undisturbed wetland soils

A simple field method for estimating the mass of organic carbon stored in undisturbed wetland soils

We have compiled a large dataset of peat and soil cores from temperate and boreal regions of eastern Canada to develop a simple field method for estimating the mass of soil organic carbon (SOC) stored in undisturbed wetlands (peatlands, swamps and marshes). We show that it is possible to predict the...
