Title

Simulated peat heights and water-table depths for UK blanket bog

Abstract

These data are the simulated peat heights and water-table depths (both in cm) from a DigiBog run. The virtual peatland was configured as a 2-D transect of 100 x 2m x 2m columns. The data were generated for each year of a 5,100-year run. After 4,900 years, six ditches were added and the model allowed to run for a further 100 years. After this time, the ditches were ‘restored’ and the simulation continued until a total runtime of 5,100 years had elapsed.

Lineage

The virtual peatland was set up with driving data and an underlying topography to represent a typical UK blanket peatland. The aim of the simulation was not to replicate peatland development at a specific location, but to create an analogue for blanket peat.
