Annual variation of methane emissions from forested bogs in West Siberia (2005–2009): a case of high CH4 and precipitation rate in the summer of 2007
We have been conducting continuous measurements of CH 4 and CO 2 on a network of towers (JR-STATION: Japan–Russia Siberian Tall Tower Inland Observation Network) located in taiga, steppe, and wetland biomes of Siberia. Here we describe measurements from two forested bog sites, Karasevoe (KRS; 58°15′...

We have been conducting continuous measurements of CH 4 and CO 2 on a network of towers (JR-STATION: Japan–Russia Siberian Tall Tower Inland Observation Network) located in taiga, steppe, and wetland biomes of Siberia. Here we describe measurements from two forested bog sites, Karasevoe (KRS; 58°15′ N, 82°25′ E) and Demyanskoe (DEM; 59°47′ N, 70°52′ E), in West Siberia from 2005 to 2009. Although both CH 4 and CO 2 accumulation (ΔCH 4 and ΔCO 2 ) during nighttime (duration of 7 h beginning 21:30 LST) at KRS in July 2007 showed an anomalously high concentration, the higher ratios of ΔCH 4 /ΔCO 2 compared with those in other years indicate that a considerably more CH 4 flux occurred relative to the CO 2 flux in response to large precipitation recorded in 2007 (~2.7 mm d −1 higher than the climatological 1979–1998 base).
