Abstract
Little is known regarding the impact of land use on the isotopic signature of dissolved organic matter (DOM), although such impacts should occur first in this most mobile part of soil organic matter. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of both land use and change on the isotopic composition of DOM. We extracted water-soluble fulvic acids (FA) as the main fraction of DOM from the topsoil, groundwater, and surface water of six sites differing in land use in a natural fen area, and we analyzed 13C, 14C, and 15N. Long-term intensive land use (of at least 50 years) resulted in the enrichment of water-soluble FAs with 13C. Enhanced peat decomposition caused by conventional crop farming resulted in the highest 14C age of water-soluble FAs. The radiocarbon age of the water-soluble FAs in the topsoil and surface water was as much as 1700 years, much older than previously assumed. Long-term agricultural land use with high fertilizer input resulted in 14N enrichment of water-soluble FAs, probably because of the incorporation of light N isotopes derived from mineral fertilizers. 14C and 15N isotopes indicated a distinct change of C and N turnover after changing from conventional crop farming to unimproved pasture. The N and C isotopes of water-soluble FAs are a useful tool to indicate changing C and N cycles caused by long-term (50 to 200 years) differences in land use. Short-term changes in land use (14C and 15N signature of water-soluble FAs.
