Abstract
⺠A suite of lipid biomarkers from a European Russian Arctic peat core was analyzed. ⺠The peat sequence records a vegetation transition from a wetter fen to a drier bog. ⺠The n-alkan-2-ones derive from oxidation of n-alkanes and decarboxylation of n-acids. ⺠Both n-alkanoic acids and n-alkanols are useful paleoenvironmental proxies.
