Summary

This dataset contains time series observations of land surface-atmosphere exchanges of sensible heat (H) and latent heat fluxes (LE), together with supporting meteorological and soil physics data obtained at six eddy covariance (EC) flux tower monitoring sites located across England and Wales. The flux monitoring sites include three croplands (two on peat, one on mineral soils), one grassland on peat, one lowland fen under conservation management, and a relatively intact upland raised bog. Data collection started in January 2023 and ended in January 2024, except for one site in Wales which ended in December 2023. Vegetation data was also collected and consist of manual measurements of canopy height, leaf area index , and biomass. This work was supported by the Natural Environment Research Council award number NE/R016429/1 as part of the UK-SCAPE programme delivering National Capability.
