Purpose: A literature review was conducted to compile DOC exports from peatland at the plot and catchment scale. The Web of Science database was queried using the following search strings: “DOC,” “export,” and “peatland.” Publications were selected only if they reported annual DOC exports (gC m−2 yr−1) or provided enough data to calculate them. Additional publications were added to the database based on the authors' knowledge and/or if they were mentioned as references in the first pool of selected publications.
Abstract: At each peatland site, mean annual air temperature (°C) (hereafter air temperature), total annual precipitation (L m−2 yr−1) (hereafter precipitation), total annual specific discharge (L m−2 yr−1) (hereafter specific discharge), surface proportion of peatland in the watershed (%) and direct anthropogenic disturbances (when reported in the publications) were compiled to describe the context in which DOC export takes place. When available, these data were collected in the articles reporting DOC exports and if not in companion papers. At a given site, when an article reported multi annual fluxes, average values were calculated. When several publications reported fluxes at the same site, the latest calculations were selected.
