subject: We studied the peat stratigraphy of the Mukhrino peatland, which is a typical ombrotrophic bog for the Middle Taiga zone of Western Siberia, to gain insights into its history, hydrology, and carbon fluxes. For the first time in Western Siberia, seven cores were collected from locations that were chosen to represent the typical present-day vegetation types, and this was performed for the dating of the separated dissolved (DOC) and particulate organic carbon (POC) fractions, which were determined using the Accelerator Mass Spectrometer (AMS) radiocarbon (14C) method. The oldest peat was found at the bottoms of an underlying lake (10,053 cal. year BP) and an ancient riverbed (10,989 cal. year BP). For the whole history of the peatland, the average peat accumulation rate was estimated to be 0.067  0.018 cm yr-1 (ranging from 0.013 to 0.332 cm yr-1), and the carbon accumulation rate was 38.56  12.21 g m-2 yr-1 (ranging from 28.46 to 57.91 g m-2 yr-1). There were clear age differences between the separated samples of the DOC and POC. The DOC was older than the POC in the uppermost 150 cm of the peat deposit and younger in the deeper layers. The difference in age increased with depth, reaching 2000?3000 years at the bottom of the peat deposit (depth of 430?530 cm). Following the consideration of a range of factors that could potentially cause the dating discrepancy, we hypothesised that the DOC continuously moves down into the mineral sediment beneath the peat, as an additional carbon flux that results in the mixing of younger and older carbon. On this basis, we estimated the apparent rate of the DOC's downward movement and the associated rate of carbon loss. The first estimate of the average rate of the DOC's downward movement in Western Siberia was 0.047  0.019 cm yr-1, causing carbon loss in the range of 28?404 mg m-2 yr-1.
