Abstract

Data are from the flux tower at the Susquehanna Shale Hills CZO, including measurement of boundary layer winds, CO2, sensible and latent heat fluxes, and CO2 and water vapor concentrations. Wind speed and air temperature measured with a Campbell Scientific CSAT3 Three Dimensional Sonic Anemometer, http://www.campbellsci.com. CO2 and water vapor concentration measured with a LI-COR LI-7500 CO2/H2O Analyzer, http://www.licor.com.

IMPORTANT: The LI-COR LI-7500 infrared gas analyzer failed in October, 2010, resulting in no source data for calculation of CO2 flux or latent heat flux. This failure also resulted in loss of atmospheric surface pressure data used for calibration/correction, so sensible heat flux and other data may contain large errors. Use of this data is at own risk. The analyzer was replaced in April 2014, so data for May 2014 and later should be usable. In late winter/early spring 2015, data connection from the tower was sporadic, so some gaps in time exist.
