Description

Companion dataset to Modelling the climate impact of management scenarios for currently drained forested peatlands in northern latitudes. It contains ForSAFE-Peat simulations (1940–2100) for four Swedish site conditions (north/south × nutrient-poor/rich) under three trajectories: conventional forestry, rewetting, and continuous-cover forestry (CCF). It also contains a dataset used for model validation and the Python code used to analyse the dataset and derive the climate impact metrics from the biophysical fluxes. 

Files

  • Climate Forcers Fluxes.xlsx — Annual site-level time series of CO₂, CH₄, N₂O, DOC-related fluxes, harvested-wood-product decay, surface albedo and reflected shortwave radiation, plus derived ΔRF and ΔIRF. Units noted per sheet (gC or gN m⁻² yr⁻¹; W m⁻² earth m⁻² alt; W-yr m⁻² earth m⁻² alt).

  • GWL.xlsx — Simulated groundwater level (daily and annual) for all scenarios, with harmonised observational data used for calibration/validation (depth relative to surface, m).

  • ClimateImpact_v1.py — Python code, path dependencies should be updated to match the location of the dataset.

Data support figures/tables in the manuscript and enable reuse for comparison, benchmarking, and scenario testing. Please cite the manuscript and this record when using the data.
