Intersections between AmeriFlux and Remote Sensing: Toward an Integrated Understanding of Ecosystems

Session ID#: 161602

Session Description:
AmeriFlux is one of the largest science networks and has been providing carbon, water, and energy flux observations, and meteorological data for 25 years, to inform knowledge of ecosystem function and to complement other field measurements, remote sensing (RS) products, and models. While the information provided by AmeriFlux data is very useful for interpreting the fluxes, the ability of RS to cover larger spatial scales can complement AmeriFlux data, which represent footprints of up to a few kilometers. Furthermore, with theoretical and technical advances in RS from ground-based to satellite-based techniques, RS products are now available for a variety of spectral, spatiotemporal, and observational scales. Therefore, the connection between eddy covariance observations and RS has become closer and more important than ever. This session will highlight research that combines eddy covariance and RS at all levels (from ground to spaceborne) to advance our understanding of ecosystem function (greenhouse gases, water cycling, and energy flows).
