Increased forest production may be counteracted by increased CO2 release through fires due to management practices such as ditching wetlands.
The overarching goal of this study is to investigate the short-term
(1-10? (12 months) effects of the 2014 Swedish wildfire on stream and lake water chemistry. Downstream data from
nine seven burned watersheds and two reference (unburned) watersheds are presented together with data from ten lakes. In addition, pre-fire data exist for two of the streams in the burned area, making this a unique opportunity to quantify the impact of the wildfire on water chemistry. Furthermore, we want explore if catchment characteristics can be associated with the post-fire water chemistry. In particular we tested the variables: i) the proportion of severely burned upland, ii) proportion drained peatlands (i.e. treed peatlands), iii) proportion of open (i.e. undrained) peatlands. Overall classification of burn severity in uplands and peatlands are determined by remote sensing techniques.
