The data set contains:
- Diel (24 h) CH4 fluxes for each available emission pathway (plant-mediated transport, diffusion at the water-air interface, diffusion at the sediment-air interface, ebullition) measured with different chamber types (vegetation chamber, floating chamber, sediment chamber, ebullition traps) in each season (spring, summer, fall, winter)
- mean chamber air temperature in Kelvin during chamber closure
- slope and R² of the linear regression fit of the temporal change of the dry mole CH4 fraction during chamber closure
- mean d13-C-CH4 value during chamber closure
- mean d13-C-CO2 value during chamber closure
- inverse value of dry mole CH4 fraction during chamber closure
- inverse value of dry mole CO2 fraction during chamber closure
- if ebullition happened during closure, this is marked with 1
- nighttime defined if the incoming shortwave radiation < 10 W/m².
The study site is located in the eastern reed belt of Lake Neusiedl near the Biological station Illmitz in Austria.

Timestamp in UTC
Time interval of chamber measurement: every 3 h (for 24 h) for each chamber type (emission pathway) with 3 replicates
Time period: spring 2021, summer 2021, fall 2021, winter 2022
