Carbon dioxide and methane fluxes with associated environmental observations from a plantation forest to bog restoration site, Lonielist, Forsinard Flows RSPB Reserve, Scotland, 2014-2022
[THIS DATASET HAS BEEN WITHDRAWN]. This dataset contains measurements of greenhouse gas exchange (carbon dioxide and methane) over a site restored from plantation forest to peat in 2003/2004, in the Flow Country, Caithness and Sutherland. It contains eddy-covariance and associated meteorological and pedological measurements from 2014-07-08 14:30 to 2022-12-31 at half-hourly intervals. The carbon dioxide time series has been gap-filled to allow the calculation of annual budgets for carbon exchange. The site reference is UK-LNS (

). Full details about this dataset can be found at

- Statement
- The site was first installed in June 2014 by the James Hutton Institute on a square lattice mast. The instrumentation was removed in early 2018 to allow reprofiling and other further restoration work on the site and reinstalled in later in 2018. It is currently managed by the James Hutton Institute (Aberdeen) as part of the SCO2FLUX network with supporting funding from NERC (Mothership Project) and SRES (CentrePeat project). The University of the Highlands and Islands and the RSPB (Royal Society for the Protection of Birds) continue to support maintenance of the site as local site operators. The tower sits on a felled conifer plantation which was rewetted after the trees were harvested in 2003 and there was further reprofiling work and furrow blocking in 2018. Some brash is still visible but the surface is quite level and peatland vegetation has returned to the footprint. Small areas that do not appear to have been forested lie to the north-west and south-east of the tower and have pool systems. The pools are 60 m (north-west) and 90 m (south-east) approximately. Measurements are made using standard instrumentation, retrieved remotely at regular intervals and processed using protocols similar to those defined by the FluxNet and Integrated Carbon Observation Systems (ICOS) projects.
