Introduction The Lammin-Suo peatland station is located near Ilichevo settlement in Vyborgskiy district, Leningrad region, Russia (60.243541 N, 29.815533 E) in a hilly area with numerous sandy hills up to 150 m high, followed by deep pans. The Lammin-Suo peatland are classified as raised bog, the most common type of bog in Eastern Fennoscandia. The research at the Lammin-Suo peatland station focuses on hydrology, meteorology, soil processes and the landscape evolution of the peatland. This dataset presents hydrological, hydrogeological, and meteorological data collected at the Lammin-Suo peatland station over the period from 1 January 1952 to 31 December 2020. Monitored parameters include air temperature, air humidity, atmospheric pressure, wind speed and direction, cloudiness, precipitation, evaporation, snow depth, peat temperature, swamp water level, groundwater level and temperature.

Meteo 1.1 Methods Meteorological observations have been carried out daily since 1952 at two meteorological stations. Observed parameters include air temperature, wind speed, air humidity, cloudiness, snow depth (in winter). Daily data are measured once per day (snow thickness) or calculated from hourly data (air temperature). Hourly data are measured at 01:00, 07:00, 13:00, and 19:00. Measuring equipment: air temperature (hourly, mean) – thermometer TM-4; maximum air temperature – maximum thermometer TM-1; minimum air temperature – minimum thermometer TM-2; wind speed - meteorological mast М-82-I, weathervane FVT / FVL; partial water ...
