Marcell Experimental Forest 30-minute water table elevation and temperature from transects of wells in the S2 and S6 peatlands, 2018-ongoing

This data publication contains 30-minute water table elevation and temperature data collected along bog to lagg transects within two watersheds at the Marcell Experimental Forest (MEF) in Itasca County, Minnesota. The bog to lagg transects are located on the north and south sides of S2 and S6 peatlands and contain three surface water wells each. The water table elevations provide information to calculate the hydraulic gradients that drive flow to and from the bogs. The collection of these data was funded by the US Department of Energy. The research program at Marcell Experimental Forest is managed by the USDA Forest Service Northern Research Station.

Surface carbon, water and energy fluxes measured by eddy covariance at 3 sites within the Alaska Peatlands Experiment and Bonanza Creek Experimental Forest

These data are simultaneous and continuous measurements of carbon, water and energy fluxes of the terrestrial landscape. These fluxes are major regulatory drivers of the boreal climate system and form key linkages and feedbacks between the land surface, the atmosphere and the oceans. At the APEX project site, within Bonanza Creek Experimental Forest, this monitoring is repeated across a chronosequence of permafrost degradation; the Black Spruce site is an area of stable permafrost with intact black spruce forest (APEX gamma site), the Thermokarst site is an active thermokarst zone with considerable tree mortality (APEX betaSW site), the Fen site is within a stable treeless fen with deep active layer depth (APEX apexcon,low, and ele sites). The main variables being monitored are the instananeous fluxes of CO2, water vapor and surface energy (shortwave, longwave and net radiation), secondary variables included photosynthetically active radiation (PAR), air and soil temperatures, rainfall, snow depth, soil moisture content, wind direction and speed, and average atmospheric concentrations of CO2 and H2O through the year.

Reactive nitrogen fluxes over peatland (Bourtanger Moor) and forest (Bavarian Forest National Park) using micrometeorological measurement techniques

<p>Within the framework of the research projects NITROSPHERE and FORESTFLUX, field campaigns were carried out to investigate the biosphere-atmosphere exchange of reactive nitrogen compounds. We applied novel fast-response instruments in eddy-covariance setups for continuous determination of surface ammonia (NH<sub>3</sub>) and total reactive nitrogen (<span class="math-tex">\(\Sigma\)</span>N<sub>r</sub>) fluxes using two different analytical devices. While high-frequency measurements of ammonia were measured with a quantum cascade laser absorption spectrometer (QCL), a custom-built converter called TRANC coupled to a chemiluminescence detector was used for the determination of total reactive nitrogen. High-resolution data of surface-atmosphere fluxes of reactive compounds are still scarce, but highly desired for testing and validating local inferential and larger scale models. We provide access to campaign data including concentrations, fluxes and ancillary measurements of meteorological data. Campaigns were conducted in natural (forest) and semi-natural (peatland) ecosystem types. The published datasets stress the importance of recent advancements in laser spectrometry and help improve our understanding of the temporal variability of surface-atmosphere exchange in different ecosystems, thereby providing validation opportunities for inferential models simulating the exchange of reactive nitrogen.</p>

Marcell Experimental Forest biweekly surface water and monthly porewater chemistry at Bog Lake Peatland, 2007 - ongoing

This data set reports the chemistry of surface and porewater water from the Bog Lake peatland in the Marcell Experimental Forest (MEF) in Itasca County, Minnesota, which is operated and maintained by the USDA Forest Service, Northern Research Station. Surface water has been collected about every other week since 2007 from a pool of water and sampling is ongoing. Once covered with ice, water was typically sampled once a month. Porewaters at five depths (0 to 2 m depths) have been collected about monthly from three different nest of piezometers since 2013, though never when samplers were frozen. Samples are measured for pH, specific conductivity, anions (chloride, sulfate), cations (calcium, magnesium, potassium, sodium, aluminum, iron, manganese, strontium), silicon, nutrients (ammonium, nitrate, soluble reactive phosphorus, total nitrogen, total phosphorus), and total organic carbon.

Data and R-scripts for estimating carbon dioxide emissions from drained peatland forest soils for the greenhouse gas inventory of Finland

<p><strong>&nbsp;Introduction</strong></p> <p>A new method for estimating carbon dioxide emissions from rained peatland forest soils was developed for the Greenhouse Gas Inventory of Finland (GHG inventory). The method is based on a set of models (Ojanen et al. 2014, Tuomi et al., 2009) that dynamically compile all relevant carbon inputs and outputs into a time series of soil CO<sub>2</sub> emission. A complete description of the method is described in Alm et al. (2023). Here we present the input data and R-scripts (R Core Team, 2020) for computing the time series from year 1990 to 2022 of CO<sub>2</sub> emission from soil in forest land on drained organic soil, like it was reported by the Finnish GHG inventory (Statistics Finland, 2023).</p> <p><strong>Time series data </strong></p> <p>The source of forest and area data is the Finnish National Forest Inventory (NFI) as a part of Luke Statutory Services. The NFI standing forest data in the data files includes annual country-wide estimates of mean basal area and standing biomass of Scots pine (<em>Pinus sylvestris</em> L.), Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) H. Karst) and all the broadleaved forest trees combined. The data concerns forest land on drained organic soil only (class FRA 1 according to the FAO forest land definition).</p> <p>The NFI data for each year has been averaged by different drained peatland forest site types (FTYPE) and by inventory regions of southern and northern Finland. The areas and proportions of FTYPEs of all drained peatland &ldquo;forests remaining forests&rdquo; (i.e., forests that have not undergone another change in land use in the past 20 years) in southern and northern Finland (Alm et al., 2023), derived from NFI12 (2014&ndash;2018).</p> <p>Annual litter input from harvest residues was estimated using statistics of harvested stem volumes by species, collected and published by Luke (Luke statistics). The stem volumes were converted to whole trees and further to litter fractions and further to The share of residues remaining in forest is estimated by subtracting the amount of the logging residues collected for energy use, the data obtained from Luke statistics/energy. The biomass of live trees, annual litterfall from live trees aboveground and root litter belowground are derived from the National Forest Inventory of Finland (inventory rounds NFI8 to NFI13). The R-code also includes calculation of annual litter production from the harvesting residues.</p> <p>The regression-based transfer models, implemented in the R-code, also need meteorological time series inputs: The soil organic matter decomposition model (Ojanen et al. 2014) uses May-October mean temperature. Decomposition model yasso07 (Tuomi et al., 2009), applied for estimating the CO<sub>2</sub> release by decomposition of harvesting residues and above ground litter from natural mortality, is constrained by annual temperature, annual temperature amplitude and annual precipitation. Starting from the original country-wide grid produced by the Finnish Meteorological Institute (FMI) the weather time series were spatially averaged so that the FMI weather grid values were collected from those locations where peatlands representing each FTYPE in southern and northern Finland were observed by the NFI, respectively.</p> <p>The pre-prepared input data are given in files, see Table 1 for descriptions.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Table 1.
