| 520 | _ | _ | |a 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 Sphagnum plant constituents. We report a combined stable carbon and oxygen isotope record of cellulose separately extracted from Sphagnum branches and stem sections manually sampled from a similar to 4000 year old peat, deposited in a small dry maar crater located in the Westeifel Volcanic Field, Germany. We have determined the species composition of each individual sample of Sphagnum branches to address the sensitivity of the stable isotope records to potential changes in Sphagnum assemblages. The youngest approximately 3000 years old peat section consists of scarcely decomposed Sphagnum plant material. From the bog's surface to a depth of similar to 60 cm the predominant species is Sphagnum magellanicum. Between similar to 60 and similar to 550 cm the peat predominantly consists of Sphagnum capillifolium var. rubellum. At greater depths the decomposition status increases, species identification is, however, solely achievable if the record under examination consists of moderately decomposed peat. The stable carbon and oxygen isotope values of cellulose from Sphagnum stem sections are significantly lighter than those of the branches. Both isotopic offsets between the different plant compounds exhibit a strong degree of correlation, are statistically highly significant and observable down-core. The stable carbon isotope offset averages to 1.5 parts per thousand, however, presumably decreases with increasing age of the plant material. In contrast, the averaged oxygen isotope offset of 0.9 parts per thousand is consistent in time. Our results imply that if no differentiation into Sphagnum branches and stem sections prior to stable isotope analyses is possible, erroneous interpretations of the isotope records are likely, since down-core changes in the ratio of branches to stem sections in the peat profile are most likely. This also implies that the removal of all non-Sphagnum plants or plant fragments is insufficient to retrieve stable isotope signals from peat deposits exclusively reflecting palaeo-environmental conditions. Even isotopic records from bulk Sphagnum cellulose comprise of two different signals: firstly, an environmental signal based on the plant response to external controls. This signal is, however, masked by a second plant physiological signal originating from the isotopic offset between branches and stem sections. (C) 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. |
