Carbon flux measurements from chambers collected between April to October 2023 at Old Woman Creek, Huron, Ohio

This dataset contains carbon dioxide and methane gas flux measurements collected via chamber sampling at Old Woman Creek National Estuarine Research Reserve in Huron, OH. These data were generated to understand temporal and vegetation patterns associated with wetland carbon cycling. Specifically, this dataset intends to answer how carbon dioxide and methane fluxes change monthly and hourly across sites with vegetation and without vegetation. Data includes chamber measurements that were measured in both sites with vegetation and without vegetation and that were collected hourly (7 AM to 7 PM or 5 AM to 10 PM and monthly (April to October). The file soilrespiration_data23.csv contains these data, and the metadata file (soilrespiration_chammetadata23.csv) and location metadata file (soilrespiration_locationmetadata23.csv) have information on locations where the chambers were placed and sampled in the wetland. Data processing was done on raw methane fluxes (Flux_CH4) to remove the influence of ebullition (Flux_CH4_ebullition) to get a diffusive flux (Flux_CH4_diffusive).
