2021 OSM Wetland - Peatland Water

Shallow groundwater chemistry including routines, major ions, nutrients and carbon content and trace elements.

Samples are collected by peristaltic pump from piezometers with a sample depth of -25 to -75 cm below the peatland surface. Samples are collected from three wells at each site along the upland to wetland gradient (for fens), and from a single well installed in a hollow for bogs and swamps.
