Carbon and nutrient burial within Peruvian coastal marsh driven by anthropogenic activities.

This research assessed carbon and nutrient burial during the past ~60 years within a Peruvian coastal marsh ecosystem affected by anthropogenic activities, by examining total organic carbon (TOC), total nitrogen (TN) and isotopes (δC and δN) tracers in two dated sediment cores. Significantly higher TOC and TN burial, up to 416.4 ± 65.
