SaMS – Soils as Methane Sinks: Gas Fluxes of CH4 and CO2 in twelve forest soils in SW-Germany from 1998-2022

Monthly concentration profiles of the soil gases CO2 and CH4 were measured in twelve forest soils in southwest Germany from 1998/2010 to 2022 (Maier et al. 2020). In the soil gas transport model ConFluxPro (Gartiser et al. 2025), gas fluxes are calculated using an inverse flux-gradient approach. To reduce uncertainties in the soil physical parameters, fluxes derived from the concentration profiles were calibrated with parallel chamber measurements. The resulting long-term measurement series of the soil gas fluxes CO2 and CH4 were additionally gap-filled and aggregated to annual mean values of methane uptake.
