Popis: Under a warming climate, the occurrence of wildfires has been becoming increasingly more frequent in boreal forests and Arctic tundra over the last few decades. Wildfires can cause radical changes in forest ecosystems and the permafrost environment, such as the irreversible degradation of permafrost, succession of boreal forests, rapid and massive losses of soil carbon stock, and increased periglacial geohazards. Since 2016, we have gradually and more systematically established a network for studying soil nutrients and monitoring the hydrothermal state of the active layer and near-surface permafrost in the northern Da Xing'anling Mountains in Northeast China. Soil moisture content (depth of 0–9.4 m), soil organic carbon content (0–3.6 m), total nitrogen content (0–3.6 m), and total phosphorus and potassium content (0–3.6 m) datasets were obtained in 2016 via field sampling and subsequent laboratory tests. Ground temperature (0–20 m) and active layer thickness (2017–2022) datasets were obtained using thermistor cables that were permanently installed in boreholes or interpolated with these temperatures. The present data can be used to simulate changes in permafrost features under a changing climate and wildfire disturbances and to explore the changing interactive mechanisms of the fire–permafrost–carbon system in hemiboreal forests. Furthermore, they can provide baseline data for studies and action plans to support the carbon neutralization initiative and assessment of the ecological safety and management of the permafrost environment. These datasets can be easily accessed via the National Tibetan Plateau/Third Pole Environment Data Center (https://doi.org/10.11888/Cryos.tpdc.300933, Li and Jin, 2024).
