Meteorology, soil physics, and eddy covariance measurements of carbon dioxide, energy and water exchange from a distributed network of sites across England and Wales, 2023-2024
This dataset contains time series observations of land surface-atmosphere exchanges of sensible heat (H) and latent heat fluxes (LE), together with supporting meteorological and soil physics data obtained at six eddy covariance (EC) flux tower monitoring sites located across England and Wales. The flux monitoring sites include three croplands (two on peat, one on mineral soils), one grassland on peat, one lowland fen under conservation management, and a relatively intact upland raised bog. Data collection started in January 2023 and ended in January 2024, except for one site in Wales which ended in December 2023. Vegetation data was also collected and consist of manual measurements of canopy height, leaf area index , and biomass. This work was supported by the Natural Environment Research Council award number NE/R016429/1 as part of the UK-SCAPE programme delivering National Capability.

Eddy covariance (EC) and micrometeorological observations were made using an open-path eddy covariance system. Ancillary meteorological and soil physics observations were co-located with the eddy covariance station. Turbulent flux densities were calculated from the raw EC data using the EddyPRO® Flux Calculation Software Version 7.0.6. Quality Control of EC data involved removal of statistical outliers and tests that theoretical requirements for the successful application of the EC technique were not violated significantly. Data gaps in EC data (NEE, LE, H) and the partitioning of NEE into gross ecosystem production and total ecosystem production were performed using the REddyProc Package for R. Further details are available in the supporting documentation.
