Carbon isotopic composition of Sphagnum macrofossils can potentially be used as a
palaeohydrological tool for peat‐based climatic studies since a relationship between …

Late-Holocene peat stratigraphy of a Canadian boreal peat bog was examined to evaluate
the potential of Sphagnum δ13C values as surface moisture proxy indicators. Isotopic …

The interpretation of isotopic variation in Sphagnum from Holocene peat profiles rests upon
several assumptions concerning physiological processes such as variation in CO2 uptake …

Stable carbon and oxygen isotope ratios in single plant components in Sphagnum peat
have a good potential to reveal environmental changes in peat archives. Two peat profiles …

We conducted a modern process study on Sphagnum magellanicum from southern
Patagonian peat bogs to improve our understanding of environmental controls on the …

To understand more fully the nature of isotopic fractionation in mosses and to explore the
potential of stable isotope analyses of selected peat constituents for palaeoenvironmental …

Rain-fed peatlands are dominated by peat mosses (Sphagnum sp.), which for their growth
depend on nutrients, water and CO 2 uptake from the atmosphere. As the isotopic …

To investigate the potential of stable isotopes of Sphagnum peat deposits for palaeoclimate
research and to inform sampling strategies, we present results from a study of selected …

Carbon stable isotope (δ 13 C) records from vascular plant dominated peatlands have been
used as a palaeoclimate proxy, but a better empirical understanding of fractionation …

Peatlands encode information about past vegetation dynamics, climate, and microbial
processes. Here, we used δ 15 N and δ 13 C patterns from 16 peat profiles to deduce how …
