abstract = {Besides agricultural soils, temperate forest soils have
been identified as significant sources of or sinks for
important atmospheric trace gases (N2O, NO, CH4, and CO2).
Although the number of studies for this ecosystem type
increased more than tenfold during the last decade, studies
covering an entire year and spanning more than 1-2 years
remained scarce. This study reports the results of
continuous measurements of soil-atmosphere C-and N-gas
exchange with high temporal resolution carried out since
1994 at the Hoglwald Forest spruce site, an experimental
field station in Southern Germany. Annual soil N2O, NO and
CO2 emissions and CH4 uptake (1994-2010) varied in a range
of 0.2-3.0 kgN(2)O-N ha(-1) yr(-1), 6.4-11.4 kg NO-N ha(-1)
yr(-1), 7.0-9.2 t CO2-C ha(-1) yr(-1), and 0.9-3.5 kgCH(4)-C
ha(-1) yr(-1), respectively. The observed high fluxes of
N-trace gases are most likely a consequence of high rates of
atmospheric nitrogen deposition (>20 kg N ha(-1) yr(-1)) of
NH3 and NOx to our site. For N2O, cumulative annual
emissions were >= 0.8 kg N2O-N ha(-1) yr(-1) in years with
freeze-thaw events (5 out 14 of years). This shows that
long-term, multi-year measurements are needed to obtain
reliable estimates of N2O fluxes for a given ecosystem.
Cumulative values of soil respiratory CO2 fluxes tended to
be highest in years with prolonged freezing periods, i.e.
years with below average annual mean soil temperatures and
high N2O emissions (e.g. the years 1996 and
2006).Furthermore, based on our unique database on trace gas
fluxes we analyzed if soil temperature, soil moisture
measurements can be used to approximate trace gas fluxes at
daily, weekly, monthly, or annual scale. Our analysis shows
that simple-to-measure environmental drivers such as soil
temperature or soil moisture are suitable to approximate
fluxes of NO and CO2 at weekly and monthly resolution
reasonably well (accounting for up to $59\%$ of the
variance). However, for CH4 we so far failed to find
meaningful correlations, and also for N2O the predictive
power is rather low. This is most likely due to the
complexity of involved processes and counteracting effects
of soil moisture and temperature, specifically with regard
to N2O production and consumption by denitrification and
microbial community dynamics. At monthly scale, including
information on gross primary production (CO2, NO), and N
deposition (N2O), increased significantly the explanatory
power of the obtained empirical regressions (CO2: r(2) =
0.8; NO: r(2) = 0.67; N2O, all data: r(2) = 0.5; N2O, with
exclusion of freeze-thaw periods: r(2) = 0.65).},
