1 Subsidence, mire depth, biomass C and peat C before and after drainage on 4 long term forest research trials in south-eastern Norway Lise Dalsgaard, Nicholas Clarke Departments of Forest and Climate and Terrestrial Ecology, NIBIO Final meeting SNS-120: Anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions from organic forest soils: improved inventories and implications for sustainable management Helsinki, October 31 November 2, 2018

2 Outline Background Preliminary results To do further

3 Forest Drainage, Norway, all categories, area in hectares Drainage of new areas for forest forbidden in 2007 The main driver 100 years ago: low-stocked stands, dimension cutting, lack of timber resources 3

4 Long term forest production Biomass/timber, production, stability, quality Carbon accumulation Regeneration, ornamental, game, berries, recreation trials Operative peatland trials in Norway: 174 9: A trials 74: B trials 91: No activity, records kept Currently ca trials in total; ca. 600 are operative trials; trees remeasured everay 5-10 years. Green: operative Red: closed trials

5 Challenging detective work in old archives before and after field data collection November 7, 2018 Side

6 EXAMPLE NO. 1 «Enerholmen» Field trial in Løten, Hedmark. Drained in Fertilization treatments 6

8 People Jørgen and Stig supporters of peatland forestry. Kari showing Helge how to ruin your back. Nicholas caught something in the peat. Jan and Eirik demonstrating how to NOT ruin your back. November 7, 2018 FIELD WORK SUMMER AND FALL and a hard working levelling and tree measurement team. Side

9 METHOD OVERVIEW Mire depth and elevation (levelling) (Akersmyr) 1965 (Gongemyr, Øvre Mastmyr) 1972 (Enerholmen) Tree measurements 1) in long term field trial plots, 2) 4 m radius of elevation plot; all trees > 2.5 cm dbh. Soil sampling at most elevation plots in drained forests and in reference mires. Large corer (1.0 m depth, 8x8 cm 2 ) where possible (mostly in reference mires) and 2 x small corer (0.6 m depth, 6x4 cm 2 ) in most forest plots.
