We are in the process of migrating all NASA Earth science data sites into Earthdata from now until end of 2026. Not all NASA Earth science data and resources will appear here until then. Thank you for your patience as we make this transition.Read about the Web Unification Project
Description
This dataset provides a synthesis of winter ( September-April) in situ soil CO2 flux measurement data from locations across pan-Arctic and Boreal permafrost regions. The in situ data were compiled from 66 published and 21 unpublished studies conducted from 1989-2017. The data sources (publication references) are provided. Sampling sites spanned pan-Arctic Boreal and tundra regions (>53 Deg N) in continuous, discontinuous, and isolated/sporadic permafrost zones. The CO2 flux measurements were aggregated at the monthly level, or seasonally when monthly data were not available, and are reported as the daily average (g C m-2 day-1) over the interval. Soil moisture and temperature data plus environmental and ecological model driver data (e.g., vegetation type and productivity, soil substrate availability) are also included based on gridded satellite remote sensing and reanalysis sources.
Citation is critically important for dataset documentation and discovery. This dataset is openly shared, without restriction, in accordance with the EOSDIS Data Use and Citation Guidance.
