Enhancing Surface Greenhouse Gas Flux Monitoring with EOL Integrated Flux System

Explore the Surface Greenhouse Gas and Energy Budget Flux Monitoring System by EOL which has been collecting data since 1991. Collaborations with MMM and ACD have enabled measurements of key greenhouse gases such as CO2, H2O, and O3. The system operates on a 43 m tower and aims to expand to 100 measurement sites. Future developments include improving flux-measurement capabilities while ingesting data from user-provided sensors.

Presentation Transcript

  1. Surface fluxes of greenhouse gases and the surface energy budget are critical facets of climate science • Observations are required to establish current fluxes • Process studies are required to parameterize fluxes for climate models EOL Integrated Surface Flux System has measured greenhouse gas fluxes and the surface energy budget since 1991, e.g. • SJVAQS/CODE measurements of H2O, CO2, and O3 fluxes • Collaborating with MMM and ACD since 2009 at BEACHON Manitou Forest site Continuous measurements of CO2 and H2O flux profiles on a 43 m tower Currently developing CentNet to expand ISFS capabilities • Extend ISFS to ~100 (spatially extensive or intensive) measurement locations • Extend in-house flux-measurement capabilities to which greenhouse gases? Limited by cost and power requirements of fast-response sensors Retain current capability to ingest data from user-provided sensors
