Long-Term Variations of δ13С in Tree Ring Cellulose of the Ob-Tom Interfluve

  • Published:
Contemporary Problems of Ecology Aims and scope

Abstract—

An analysis of δ13С long-term changes in the cellulose of annual tree rings has been performed in two forest areas of the Ob-Tom interfluve. The expected decrease in δ13С values is found in the first section, but at a rate higher than the global one by 0.16–0.2‰/10 years. At the second site, located 20 m from the peatland, there was a gradual increase in the values of δ13С until 1978, then a decrease occurred at the same rate as in the first site (0.2‰/10 years). We believe that changes in δ13С of tree cellulose in the second site reflect the dynamics of δ13С CO2 values in the peatland. The reason for the changes in dynamics after 1978 is probably the influence of the Tomsk underground water intake, which led to the drying of the peatland and, accordingly, a decrease in the value of δ13С in CO2.
