This paper gives an overview of 20 years of research on the energy balance closure
problem. It will be shown that former assumptions that measuring errors or storage terms are …

Abstract The Integrated Carbon Observation System Research Infrastructure aims to provide
long-term, continuous observations of sources and sinks of greenhouse gases such as …

Arctic terrestrial ecosystems are major global sources of methane (CH4); hence, it is
important to understand the seasonal and climatic controls on CH4 emissions from these …

The energy balance at most surface-atmosphere flux research sites remains unclosed. The
mechanisms underlying the discrepancy between measured energy inputs and outputs …

Eddy-covariance measurements are performed at several hundred sites all over the world
on a long-term basis. The gathered data are used to characterise ecosystem exchanges of …

Twenty years have passed since the first German-language edition of this book was
published. Subsequently, parallel German-and English-language editions were produced in …

With the software package TK3 for the calculation of eddy-covariance data a programme
version was developed, which is based on more than 25 years experiences. The fact that …

We evaluated the performance of four commonly applied land surface evaporation models
using a high-quality dataset of selected FLUXNET towers. The models that were examined …

This chapter describes corrections that must be applied to measurements because practical
instrumentation cannot fully meet the requirements of the underlying micrometeorological …

AmeriFlux is a network of research sites that measure carbon, water, and energy fluxes
between ecosystems and the atmosphere using the eddy covariance technique to study a …
