Dataset for Monthly Gridded Data Product of Northern Wetland Methane Emissions Based on Upscaling Eddy Covariance Observations

This record is for the dataset “Dataset for Monthly Gridded Data Product of Northern Wetland Methane Emissions Based on Upscaling Eddy Covariance Observations” at https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.2560164. This dataset provides wetland methane (CH4) emissions, their uncertainties and underlying CH4 flux densities north from 45 N using three different wetland maps. The data products are derived using data from several eddy covariance CH4 flux sites, random forest machine learning algorithms and three prescribed wetland maps. The data are at 0.5 by 0.5 deg or 1 by 1 deg resolution, depending on the wetland map used. The dataset covers years 2013 and 2014. CH4 flux densities are provided only for grid cells with > 5 % wetland coverage. The three data products are provided in netCDF format files (.nc). Please see more details in the attributes saved in the netCDF files. RF-DYPTOP.nc Upscaling based on DYPTOP dynamic wetland map. At 1 by 1 deg resolution. RF-GLWD.nc Upscaling using GLWD static wetland map. At 0.5 by 0.5 deg resolution. RF-PEATMAP.nc Upscaling using PEATMAP static wetland map. At 0.5 by 0.5 deg resolution.
