Ecosystem productivity data from wetland sites in the Pastaza-Marañón Basin, Amazonian Peru, 2018-2020

Ecosystem productivity data primarily from two forest census plots, NYO-03 and VEN-02, located in the Pastaza-Marañón Basin in Amazonian Peru. Site NYO-03 is a peatland pole forest, and Site VEN-02 is a palm swamp. The aim of the measurements was to estimate and compare rates of litter and root production and decay at the two sites, over a complete annual cycle, in order to understand the dynamics of carbon accumulation in peat in this region. Selected datasets extend to other sites, in order to provide some context for the measurements from NYO-03 and VEN-02. Downcore data from peat cores from the sites provide palaeoecological information. Full details about this dataset can be found at https://doi.org/10.5285/e34dc4c7-57d8-4120-921b-06d2f25d5e04

Statement
Data were generated using a combination of field and laboratory measurement, including: measurements of decomposition rates of different plant materials, using litter decomposition bags; collection of coarse woody debris along cleared transects; collection of litter in mesh traps; estimates of root production using ingrowth cores; estimates of stem diameter change using dendrometer bands; measurements of palm tree heights; radiocarbon and lead-210 dating of peat samples; carbon and nitrogen concentrations of peat samples; and counts of subfossil pollen in peat samples. Replicates were applied where possible, and blanks and standards were used in laboratory analyses.
