Abstract

This dataset contains air sample measurements of isotopic d13C methane. The measurements were collected using regular flask samples at Llanos de Moxos, Bolivia. The samples were analysed by Royal Holloway University of London using continuous flow gas chromatography/isotope ratio mass spectrometry (CF-GC/IRMS).

Date of campaign:
-31 Mar 2017, location: -15.024 -64.811, Low to medium forest, with heights up to 7-8 meters, seasonally flooded
-26 May 2017, location: -14.572 -64.869, Open savanah, ocassionally flooded, with palms and scattered trees
-13 July 2017, location: -14.49 -64.86, Open savanah covered by grasses and herbs
-20 Aug 2017, location: -14.49 -64.86, Open savanah covered by grasses and herbs

These data were collected as part of the Methane Observations and Yearly Assessments (MOYA) project funded by the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) (NE/N016211/1).
