Knowledge graph centered on eddy covariance with 38 nodes and 125 connections. Top connected: climate change, leaf water content, evapotranspiration, air temperature, carbon cycling.

Description

Standardized eddy covariance measurements of carbon dioxide, water vapor, and energy fluxes between ecosystems and atmosphere. Continuous automated measurements providing ground truth data for model training and validation.

Typical Equipment

  • FLUXNET eddy covariance towers
  • meteorological sensors
  • temperature sensors
  • radiation sensors
  • precipitation gauges
  • soil sensors

Output Measurements

  • evapotranspiration
  • ecosystem respiration
  • net ecosystem exchange
  • meteorological variables
