Effect of entrapped gas on peatland surface level fluctuations

Abstract

Abstract Peat is a highly compressible medium and changes in peat surface level in response to shifts in water storage and entrapped gas volume have been reported previously. Since both peat compressibility and capacity to entrap gas are related to peat structure, we hypothesize that the relationship between water table and surface level may vary across a peatland. The objective of this study is to investigate the relationships between peat …
