DOC and CO2-C Releases from Pristine and Drained Peat Soils in Response to Water Table Fluctuations: A Mesocosm Experiment

Figure 2

Mean (±SE) concentrations of DOC in different experimental groups at phase WL(37) and phases WH(40–44). for each experimental group and each phase except for DrFluc at phase WL(37), where . For statistical tests only phases WH(40–44) were included. Significant differences between the experiment groups are indicated with asterisks (; ). W: water sampling; L: low water table; H: high water table; (xx): calendar week number. Pr: pristine; Dr: drained; Ctrl: control; Fluc: fluctuating water table.
