Estimation of Dissolved Organic Carbon in River Flows and Identification of the Relationships Between Peat Humic Fractions and Physicochemical Qualities
Abstract:Peatlands are wetlands that contain higher amounts of carbon, some of which is often released with water in dissolved form, especially when land use change occurs. However, peatland carbon is mostly stabilized in humic fractions where it forms complexes with metallic elements. This study sought to measure the levels of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) in rivers and analyze the link between physicochemical parameters and humic fractions along the Buhandanda and Lushala peat profiles.
