Carbon dioxide and methane fluxes and associated environmental observations during use as plantation forest on peat bog, Forsinard Flows RSPB Reserve, Scotland, 2016-2017

This dataset contains measurements of greenhouse gas exchange (carbon dioxide and methane) over a plantation forest on peat, in the Flow Country, Caithness and Sutherland. It contains eddy-covariance and associated meteorological and pedological measurements from 2016/01/01 to 2017/12/31 at half hourly intervals. The time series has been gap filled to allow the calculation of annual budgets for carbon exchange. The site reference is UK-DKE ( http://www.europe-fluxdata.eu/home/sites-list ) Full details about this dataset can be found at https://doi.org/10.5285/856d0d16-53fe-4560-8976-b4bc75d37adc

Statement
The site was first installed in May 2016 by University of Highlands and Islands (UHI) on a triangular lattice mast ~20 m tall. At the time this area was forested with commercial non-native tree species which were harvested in November 2017. 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). 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. 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. A subset of these data, which submitted previously, will differ slightly from this version as QA/QC procedures have been updated and refined (https://doi.org/10.5285/d4a7ca90-0c62-4a31-986e-f433e1644bf3 )
