Study Site: Lake Saint-Pierre, Québec
Purpose: The study was conducted in the floodplain of Lake Saint-Pierre (LSP), Québec, Canada (46,12°N, 72,49°W, alt. 6.2 m a.s.l). We examined how SOC storage and stabilization vary in the floodplain of Lake Saint-Pierre, along an anthropogenic disturbance gradient of six land uses: conventional and improved croplands, temporary and permanent meadows, marshes, and forested swamps.
Abstract: In all 6 land uses, we quantified SOC stocks, mineral-associated organic matter - C (MAOM-C), particulate organic matter - C (POM-C), soil δ13C and sugars.
