Refining pedotransfer functions for estimating peat bulk density

Several previous studies have demonstrated the close relationship between peat dry bulk density and gravimetric moisture content. However, the basis for including peat ash (mineral) content or variation in the specific gravity of peat solids has not been covered. Here we present a theoretical basis...
