7. Muck soil
» Organic matter >80 % (minimum >30%)
» Minimum thickness of 40 cm
» "O" layer contains mainly litters, fibres,
mosses build up originally from the swampy
forest saturated with water for prolonged
periods

19. N2O-N fluxes - high under wet and cool soil condition
CH4-C fluxes - no significant relationship
CO2-C fluxes - high under dry and warm soil condition
The soil matric potential measurements demonstrate a significant
relationship between soil water content and gas production
Wireless sensor network improves the estimation of gas production
during growing season under muck soil
