AmeriFlux MX-Aog Alamos Old-Growth tropical dry forest

This is the AmeriFlux version of the carbon flux data for the site MX-Aog Alamos Old-Growth tropical dry forest. Site Description - This tower is located at a patch of remnant old growth tropical dry forest where the dominant vegetation are leguminous trees and a notorious presence of the genus Brusera. The site is at about 18 km from the municipality of Alamos Sonora Mexico within a private ranch managed by the NGO Nature Culture International. The area is also within a federally protected land named “Area de Proteccion de Flora y Fauna Sierra de Alamos Rio-Cuchijaqui" in the catalog of the “Comision Nacional de Areas Naturales Protegidas (CONANP-Mexico)”. The preserved ranch is surrounded by a mosaic of forest patches with different successional stages of tropical dry forest, and some places that are used for local agriculture and livestock. This ecosystem lies in a highly seasonal region under the influence of the North American Monsoon that brings about 70% of the rains from July to September.

AmeriFlux FLUXNET-1F US-CF2 CAF-LTAR Cook West

This is the AmeriFlux Management Project (AMP) created FLUXNET-1F version of the carbon flux data for the site US-CF2 CAF-LTAR Cook West. This is the FLUXNET version of the carbon flux data for the site US-CF2 CAF-LTAR Cook West produced by applying the standard ONEFlux (1F) software. Site Description - CF2 has operated since May 2017 at the R.J. Cook Agronomy Farm outside of Pullman, Washington, and monitors the conventionally tilled side of a paired-catchment study that is part of the Longterm Agroecosystem Research (LTAR) site common experiment. CF2 is located in “Cook West,” a field that has been in conventional tillage since prior to 1998 and constitutes the Prevalent treatment of the common experiment. In this case, conventional tillage involves chisel plowing after the winter wheat phase of rotations (approximately every 3-4 years) and occasional harrowing. CF2 is paired with the CF1 tower location in “Cook East,” which has been in no-till since 1998 and represents the Alternative treatment of the common experiment. Both fields are planted in the same crops every year. Cook Agronomy Farm is in the high precipitation agroecological zone of the Columbia Plateau’s dryland cropping region. Crop rotations are wheat-based and include winter wheat, spring wheat, chickpea, spring canola, and winter peas. Wheat is the principal cash crop, with other crops grown in rotation for diversity, nutrient, and pest management. Soils are predominantly silt loam texture Mollisols in the Palouse, Thatuna, Naff soil series. The CF2 tower replaced US-RC2, which operated 2012-2016 in a neighboring field that was also conventionally tilled. CF2 and RC2 have distinct footprints, aspects, and soil series compositions.

AmeriFlux US-VT1 Vermillion Tributary Paired Cropland – Site 1 (Corn/Soy; No Cover Crops)

This is the AmeriFlux version of the carbon flux data for the site US-VT1 Vermillion Tributary Paired Cropland – Site 1 (Corn/Soy; No Cover Crops). Site Description - US-VT1 is located on flat, actively managed farmland operated by working farmers, following a conventional no-till corn–soybean rotation in the U.S. Midwest. US-VT1 is one of two paired working farm sites on the same property; both are managed using similar conventional practices, with the key difference being that the paired site (US-VT2) incorporates cover crops into its rotation. This paired design enables direct site-to-site comparisons to assess the impacts of cover cropping on carbon, water, and energy fluxes.
