AmeriFlux US-UiE University of Illinois Sorghum-Soy

This is the AmeriFlux version of the carbon flux data for the site US-UiE University of Illinois Sorghum-Soy. Site Description - Agricultural field planted with photoperiod-sensitive ("energy") sorghum bicolor in a three year rotation with soy (sorghum-sorghum-soy). The first soy rotation was in 2019. This field is typically planted in May and harvested for biomass (sorghum) or grain (soy) in October. This site is located at an experimental farm approximately 2 miles south of the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign and is colocated with (500-1000m distance) all other Us-Ui sites.

AmeriFlux FLUXNET-1F US-xWR NEON Wind River Experimental Forest (WREF)

This is the AmeriFlux Management Project (AMP) created FLUXNET-1F version of the carbon flux data for the site US-xWR NEON Wind River Experimental Forest (WREF). This is the FLUXNET version of the carbon flux data for the site US-xWR NEON Wind River Experimental Forest (WREF) produced by applying the standard ONEFlux (1F) software. Site Description - Located in an old growth Pacific Northwest forest west of the Cascade Range, Wind River Experimental Forest has a rich history of research and timber management since the early 1900s. The area is best known for its old-growth forests of Douglas-fir and western hemlock. Data collected at this site provides an interesting comparison to NEON’s ABBY site which is located Yacolt Burn State Forest, a relatively young growth industrial timber production forest.

AmeriFlux AmeriFlux CR-SoC Soltis Center

This is the AmeriFlux version of the carbon flux data for the site CR-SoC Soltis Center. Site Description - The Texas A&M Soltis Center for Research and Education is located in San Juan de Peñas Blancas, San Ramón, Costa Rica. In 2009, Charles W. "Bill" and Wanda Soltis donated a new facility to the university and granted it a long-term lease on the adjacent 250 acres of land. The site hosts both primary and secondary growth rainforest, the later of which was selectively logged between the 1950's and the 1990's. It is best classified as a lower montane forest, located in the transitional area between the upper and lower montane cloud forests and the lowland rainforests. Temperatures average 23°C with 4200 mm/yr of rainfall; a short drier period typically occurs between January and April. Estimates suggest that the site hosts more than 2000 species of vascular plants, with dominant vegetation types including plants in the Sapotaceae, Moracea, and Malvaceae families.

AmeriFlux US-HWB USDA ARS Pasture Sytems and Watershed Management Research Unit- Hawbecker Site

This is the AmeriFlux version of the carbon flux data for the site US-HWB USDA ARS Pasture Sytems and Watershed Management Research Unit- Hawbecker Site. Site Description - Hawbecker farm is owned by Penn State University. The farming that took place was performed by their Farm Operations Division. The ground is rolling terrain, next to wooded areas, the Beef and Sheep Reasearch Farm, The University Airport, and other large fields maintained by Farm Operations. At the time of this collection period, the site housed another Meteorological Site, a Phenocam, and the GraceNet plots. Crop Rotation during period was 2 years Alfalfa, 1 year Corn for grain and 1 year Wheat.
