ICOS Ecosystem Instructions for Water Table Depth Measurements
This document describes how to organize, set up, and collect the measurements of water table depth at ICOS ecosystem stations. The document is structured in four different... -
ICOS Ecosystem Instructions for Precipitation Measurements
Precipitation is one of the most important abiotic variables related to plant growth. Considering the spatial variability of precipitation in relation to the area of interest... -
ICOS Ecosystem Instructions for Air Meteorological Measurements (TA, RH, PA, ...
Several meteorological variables need to be measured at ICOS monitoring stations in order to characterize them, analyse the drivers explaining GHG fluxes, and properly... -
ICOS Ecosystem Instructions for Ancillary Vegetation Measurements in Mires
This Instruction document describes the measurement of Green Area Index (GAI) and Aboveground Biomass (AGB) at ICOS ecosystem stations in mires. The focus of these Instructions... -
ICOS Ecosystem Instructions for Soil Meteorological Measurements (TS, SWC, G)
This document describes how to organize, set up, and collect the measurements of soil-meteorological variables at ICOS ecosystem stations. These variables are soil temperature,... -
ICOS Ecosystem Instructions for Turbulent Flux Measurements of CO2, Energy an...
The eddy covariance (EC) technique allows the calculation of the turbulent fluxes of momentum, energy and matter. CO2, energy and momentum fluxes are covered by this Instruction... -
ICOS Ecosystem Instructions for Storage Fluxes Measurements (CO2, H2O, CH4 an...
The storage flux term, added to the turbulent flux estimated by the Eddy Covariance (EC) system, allows for a closer quantification of the true net ecosystem exchange (NEE) of a...
