Palsa Uplift Identified by Stable Isotope Depth Profiles and Relation of δ15N to C/N Ratio
Palsas develop as permafrost aggradation uplifts peat out of the zone influenced by groundwater. Here we relate δ15N values to C/N ratios along depth profiles through palsas in two peatlands near Abisko, northern Sweden, to identify perturbation of the peat. The perturbation by uplift as well as the...
