CH4_potentials.xlsx contains the measured CH4 oxidation and production potential data data_soil_moisture.csv contains the time series of measured 5 cm soil moisture at the flux points. data_soil_temperature.csv contains the time series of measured 5 cm soil temperature at the flux points. microcosm_data.csv contains the data of the microcosm experiment. Columns are: datetime, sample name, sample temperature (15 or 25 c), sample moisture (control, M1 (moderate moisture), M2 (high moisture)), glucose addition (no glucose or with glucose), week (measurement week), ch4 flux.Openmethane, flux, forestExcess soil moisture and fresh carbon input are prerequisites for methane production in podzolic soildataset
