Study Site: Red Earth Creek and Wabasca, Alberta
Purpose: Peatland soil carbon accumulation and peat properties along a chronosequence of time since fire for 26 Boreal Plains ombrotrophic bogs located in different hydrogeological settings. Peat carbon accumulation since most recent fire is calculated using the location of charcoal deposits in samples, loss on ignition and carbon content of peat.
Abstract: Peat characteristics, organic matter content of the peat, bulk density, oil carbon accumulation for an ombrotrophic bog in Red Earth Creek and Wabasca, Alberta, data collected the summer of 2016
