Citation: Sannel, A Britta K (2021): Geochemistry of Selwyn peat core from Canada [dataset]. PANGAEA, https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.928188
Study Site: Selwyn Lake, Northwest Territories
Purpose: Peat and net carbon accumulation rates in two sub-arctic peat plateaus of west-central Canada have been studied through geochemical analyses and accelerator mass spectrometry radiocarbon dating.
Abstract: Sediment/rock depth, sample thickness, dry bulk density, total carbon, loss on ignition, total nitrogen, carbon of a high-resolution peat core from the Past Global Changes - Carbon in Peat on Earth through Time (PAGES_C-PEAT) Project.
