Abstract
Most of peatland in Indonesia are found on tidal swamp area, and most of them have sulphidic material as substratum. Iron (Fe) is the main metal cation which found in sulphidic material, its solubility increases with decreasing soil acidity. Peat layer is an organic material which high affinity on metal cation such as Fe. This review addresses Fe solubility dynamic due to depletion and disappear peat layer in peatland sulphidic material as substratum. Iron in peatland was origin from sulphidic material layer, the presence of Fe in peat layer was caused of Fe movement from sulphidic material to upper layer. The naturally disappear and depletion of peat layer may increase Fe2+ concentration in wetland.
