Post-fire recovery of the moss surface in Sphagnum-feathermoss peatlands, however, has been shown to be limited where moss type and burn severity interact to result in a water repellent surface.
Table 3 Live moss, surface organic layer, and soil carbon content (to 30 cm depth) estimated for unburned and severely burned (since 2015) forests near Tanana, based on previous bulk density measurements from forest sites across Alaska and percent mineral soil carbon changes from Table 1.
Because there is no local contamination from an industrial complex, road or urban areas in the vicinity of our site, the δ66Zn values of the moss surface layers (from 0.14 to 0.20‰) may represent the background atmospheric deposition for this region [59].
