Methane emissions associated with bald cypress knees across the Mississippi River Alluvial Valley

June 26, 2024

Data shows CH4 fluxes from the upper portion of cypress knees across various climate and flooding gradients of the North American Baldcypress Swamp Network in the Mississippi River Alluvial Valley. Climate data in the form of temperature, relative humidity, barometric pressure, and precipitation 3-days leading up to sampling date are also included. There various forms to calculate fluxes using cone and frustrum shapes that were compared to LiDAR scans fromi the field, therefore surface area and volume for each geometric shape is also included in the dataset.
