Description:

The study focuses on reconstructing the histories of peat deposition using n-alkane biomarkers in peat cores and associated modern plant communities from four sites around a shallow maar lake in the Changbai Mountains of northeastern China. Peat development patterns in the four sites are not concordant although the sites experienced the same paleoclimate histories. Evidently, lava flows and tephra deposits produced an uneven topography of the volcanogenic lake basin that controls the water depths at the four lake edge locations, thereby leading to differences in peat-forming plant communities and peat deposition among the four sites.
