Soil gas concentration and flux data from two peatland forest harvesting experiments in Southern Finland

Description

The dataset contains data analyzed in a scientific manuscript Peltoniemi et al., Soil CO2, CH4 and N2O concentrations and fluxes in peatland forests are associated with water table level - implications of selection harvesting on soil emissions, in review.

The data was collected from two peatland forests. The sites Lettosuo (60.63° N, 23.95° E ) and Paroninkorpi (61.01°N, 24.75°E) locate in southern Finland, and they are fertile drained spruce mires. Both sites have unharvested control and selection harvested treatments.

The dataset contains CO2, CH4, N2O and O2 concentrations analyzed by gas chromatograph from soil gas samples collected with silicon rubber tubes inserted into soil at different depths over the year 2018-2020. The dataset additionally contains soil gas flux measurements in 2020 with a portable gas analyzer. Air temperature and water table level were measured at both sites, rainfall in nearby meteorological stations, and soil redox potential at one of the sites (Paroninkorpi).

More information about the research sites and data is available in the manuscript, and Laurila et al., 2020 (http://urn.fi/URN:ISBN:978-952-380-191-2).
