title: A dataset of soil respiration in a subtropical evergreen broad-leaved forest at Ailao Mountain from 2010 to 2014
title: 2010–2014年哀牢山亚热带常绿阔叶林土壤呼吸数据集

description: Subtropical forests are the largest forest type in China, and play an important role in regulating global climate change and maintaining atmospheric carbon balance. The carbon emitted by soil through respiration is the main source of atmospheric CO2, so slight changes in soil carbon pool will also significantly affect the concentration of atmospheric CO2. Therefore, at present, the size and dynamic change characteristics of soil carbon storage in subtropical forests are widely concern.In this study, soil respiration was estimated of subtropical evergreen broad-leaved forest ecosystem at Ailao Mountain by using a multichannel automated chamber system for soil respiration measurement method. Ailao Mountain Station for Subtropical Forest Ecosystem Studies is a national field station and a basic observation station of the Chinese Ecosystem Research Network. We collected soil respiration data of subtropical evergreen broad-leaved forest in Ailao Mountain from 2010 to 2014 based on a multichannel automated chamber system for soil respiration measurement platform. Including soil temperature 5cm (TS), soil moisture content 10cm (SWC) and soil respiration data (RS), divided into three types of daily, monthly and annual scale files. This dataset is of great significance for revealing the effects of climate change on soil ecological processes in subtropical evergreen broad-leaved forests, correctly assessing soil organic carbon emissions and forest ecosystem management, and provides empirical and theoretical basis for further research on the effects of global changes such as climate warming on soil respiration components, especially soil organic carbon emissions.
