Abstract

For the calculation of gas fluxes through soils, the soil gas diffusion coefficient Ds needs to be known. Ds can be derived from diffusion chamber experiments or from field experiments measuring diffusive gas fluxes across larger spatial scales. Within these methods, the gas concentration depletion or enrichment in an accumulation chamber is used to derive D s based on Fick's law. However, since this approach does not account for retardation of soluble gases in the soil water phase, the applicability is restricted to rather inert gases. The method also does not account for convective fluxes due to sampling. To overcome these limitations and to enable the applicability of an earlier presented two-side in situ method, Ds needs to be estimated inversely from the transient diffusion experiments. In this paper, a convenient computer tool is presented that allows the estimation of Ds from diffusion chamber experiments and two in situ methods.
