Surface-Atmosphere Interactions: From Single Flux Measurements to Integrated Synthesis
Surface-Atmosphere Interactions: From Single Flux Measurements to Integrated Synthesis
Session ID#: 249963
Session Description:
Our understanding of water, energy, and greenhouse gas cycling within the Earth system is grounded in in-situ observations. Globally, hundreds of eddy covariance flux sites measure exchanges of water, energy, and trace gases between ecosystems and the atmosphere. Many of these sites contribute data to regional flux networks, which form FLUXNET to provide globally synthesized, standardized, and comprehensive datasets. These joint efforts are foundational for studying biosphere-atmosphere interactions from local to global and from diel to decadal scales.This session focuses on the current state and future perspectives of flux measurements, and their use in syntheses and modeling. We welcome contributions that improve our understanding of flux science through theory, instrumentation, models, datasets, and applications. We particularly encourage submissions from under-represented ecosystems and geographic areas, regional cluster and network-scale analyses, and new developments that improve the quality, interoperability, and reproducibility of data and tools.
