A raine gauge or Russian hydro-meteorological network standard (Tretyakov' construction) was installed as part of manual meteorological station in Mukhrino research polygon in 2010. The bucket installed at 2m height and protected by wind shield. Since 2014 only winter measurements were collected to supplement rain precipitation measurements measured in summer by automatic rain gauges (see also MFS-M-00154, MFS-M-00307, MFS-M-00308 for summer measurements in the same location).

Mukhrino Field Station is owned and run by the UNESCO Chair on Environmental Dynamics and Climate Change at the Yugra State University, Khanty-Mansiysk, Russia. The Mukhrino Field Station is located at the east bank of the Irtysh River near the confluence with the Ob River in the central taiga area of Western Siberia (60°54’ N, 68°42’ E), 30 km south-west of the town of Khanty-Mansiysk (60 000 inhabitants). Due to the severe continental climate, the environmental conditions in the region are comparable with the sub-arctic zone of Northern Europe. The research site is representative for the Western Siberian pristine carbon accumulating peatland ecosystem (“plain mires”). The mires cover c. 60 % of the land surface and can be regarded as important sources/sinks of greenhouse gases and aerosols. The main mire type of the site is raised bogs of the type Pine-dwarf shrubs-bogs (Ryam) characterized by pine trees, Ledum palustre and dwarf shrubs, with areas of Sphagnum fuscum. Interspersed are mires of the type Poor fens (partly drained in the summer) dominated by Carex lasiocarpa and other graminoids, and Sphagnum balticum. Also ridge-hollow complexes, consisting of bog ridges and poor fen hollows are present.

A raine gauge HOBO RG3-M was installed at the Mukhrino field station reseach polygon in the raised bog (ridge-hollow complex) in 2008, installation on the ground level (to prevent wind turbulence), measurement frequency - by event. This series was stopped by 2019 and replaced by another in close proximity (50 m), see MFS-M-00308 for precipitation after 2019.

A raine gauge HOBO RG3-M was installed at the Mukhrino field station research polygon, in coniferous mixed forest to measure precipitation under tree canopy. But this installation worked only for one year (2015), after this was stopped.

A raine gauge HOBO RG3-M was installed in Shapsha village in an open space (Shapsha field station) as part of macrofungi long-term plots monitoring in Shapsha vicinity. Installation on the ground level to prevent wind turbulence.

A raine gauge HOBO RG3-M was installed at the Mukhrino field station reseach polygon in the raised bog, treed bog community (ryam) in 2017, installation on the ground level (to prevent wind turbulence), measurement frequency - by event. This series is duplicated by MFS-M-00154 and MFS-M-00308 to cover variability and in case of breakdown. See also MFS-M-157 for winter (snow) precipitation at the same site measured manually.

Short-term standard litter decomposition across three different ecosystems in middle taiga zone of West Siberia. The method of standard litter (tea) decomposition was implemented to compare decomposition rate constants (k) between different peatland ecosystems and coniferous forests in the middle taiga zone of West Siberia (near Khanty-Mansiysk). The standard protocol of TeaComposition initiative was used to make the data usable for comparisons among different sites and zonobiomes worldwide. This article sums up the results of short-term decomposition (3 months) on the local scale. The values of decomposition rate constants differed significantly between three ecosystem types: it was higher in forest compared to bogs, and treed bogs had lower decomposition constant compared to Sphagnum lawns. We speculate that dry weather conditions could make large influence on decomposition dynamics in short-term scale and the experiment should be repeated in ongoing years thereby. In general, the decomposition rate constants were close to reported earlier for similar climatic conditions and habitats.
