Both peat and non-peat wetland reclamation resulted in organic carbon loss, and carbon loss from peat wetland reclamation was more severe (p < 0.01). Compared to those in natural wetlands, the relative proportions of both aliphatic and alkyl compounds decreased, and the relative proportions of nitrogenous compounds increased in paddy field soils.
