Dissolved organic carbon in New Zealand peatlands

Abstract: We determined the concentration of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and the specific ultraviolet absorbance (SUVA) of 193 samples of water collected from groundwater, porewater, drainage ditches, and streams at peatlands in New Zealand. There was a wide range in DOC concentration (from 7 to 184 mg litre -1 ), with the smallest concentrations in peatlands where there appeared to be large amounts of iron. Concentrations were large (generally >50 mg litre -1 ) in ombrotrophic (rain-fed) peatlands and reached the hi… Show more

“…The result was similar to those of some wetland-dominant landscapes (Moore 2003;Moore and Clarkson 2007). The lowest DOC concentrations were found in the surface water of the Moqu River's upper stream, while the highest DOC concentrations were found in the surface water of the peatlands.…”

“…The SUVA of all samples ranged from 0.07 to 1.78 L mg -1 m -1 , which corresponds to between a 4.09 to 15.24 % aromatics content in the DOC (Weishaar et al 2003). Compared to other wetland ecosystems, the aromaticity of the DOC in the Zoige wetlands was low in general (Moore and Clarkson 2007).…”

“…The mean DOC concentrations of the investigated peat sites exhibit concentrations that are in the same range of published data for drained (81 to 129 mg l −1 ; Moore and Clarkson, 2007) and rewetted peatlands (70-100 mg l −1 ; Glatzel et al, 2003). Because of a lack of data from other peat pore waters, we can not compare our data with POC data from other peatlands.…”

“…Significant heterogeneity existed between studies, indicating that a source of variation in study results was present and unaccounted for. Studies were undertaken over 2 [50], 6 [51,52], and 25 [53] months (study period not stated in [54]). …”
