AmeriFlux US-MEF Manitou Experimental Forest

This is the AmeriFlux version of the carbon flux data for the site US-MEF Manitou Experimental Forest. Site Description - This site was established on an existing 30-m tower structure at the Forest Service's Manitou Experimental Forest, Colorado. Manitou Experimental Forest is located approximately 38 km northwest of Colorado Springs, within the Pike National Forest. The tower was constructed and used between 2008 and 2013 by NCAR for the BEACHON project and has line power and internet connections. The tower is located in approximately 12 km^2 of ponderosa pine forest and savannah with a land use history of thinning and prescribed burning, though these disturbances have not occurred for many years. The tower is situated in a broad, flat valley that drains to the north. Early research at the site was focused mainly on grazing, while more recently it has turned broadly to the ecology and management of ponderosa pine ecosystems. In 2002, the Hayman Fire burned approximately 56,000 ha to the west and northwest of the tower location.

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.

AmeriFlux FLUXNET-1F CA-Mer Ontario - Eastern Peatland, Mer Bleue

This is the AmeriFlux Management Project (AMP) created FLUXNET-1F version of the carbon flux data for the site CA-Mer Ontario - Eastern Peatland, Mer Bleue. This is the FLUXNET version of the carbon flux data for the site CA-Mer Ontario - Eastern Peatland, Mer Bleue produced by applying the standard ONEFlux (1F) software. Site Description - The Mer Bleue peatland is primarily a large ombrotrophic bog located in the Ottawa River Valley, 10 km east of Ottawa, Ontario, Canada (45.40º N lat., 75.50º W long.). Mean annual temperature is 6.3ºC ranging from -10.5ºC in January to 21.0ºC in July. Mean annual precipitation is 943 mm, 268 mm of which falls during the summer months (Environment Canada; climate normals). Peat began to form approximately 8500 years ago, but the bog phase began later, about 6400 years ago (Lafleur et al., 2003; Richard, pers. comm.). The peat depth now ranges from 2 m at the edge to >5 m in the middle. Beaver ponds are found at the lagg margin of the bog. The bog is dominated by plant communities comprised primarily of the ericaceous shrubs Chamaedaphne calyculata (L.) Moench, Ledum groenlandicum Oeder, and Kalmia angustifolia L. Clusters of the deciduous shrub Vaccinium myrtilloides Michx. and the tufted sedge Eriophorum vaginatum L. are fairly common across the bog. The most common tree species found in the bog are Larix laricina (Duroi) K. Koch., Betula populifolia Marshall and Picea mariana (Miller) BSP occurring less frequently. In the poor fen, located to the north of the bog proper, community composition is primarily composed of the ericaceous shrubs listed above, including higher densities of K. angustifolia and Andromeda glaucophylla Link. The primary sedge in this area is Carex oligosperma Michx. All sites are dominated by an under story of bryophytes, mainly Sphagnum magellanicum Brid., Sphagnum capillifolium (Ehrh.) Hedw., and Polytrichum strictum Brid. in the bog, with Sphagnum papillosum Lindb., and Sphagnum fallax (Klinggr.) Klinggr. common in the wetter portions of the poor fen

AmeriFlux FLUXNET-1F US-Slt Silas Little- New Jersey

This is the AmeriFlux Management Project (AMP) created FLUXNET-1F version of the carbon flux data for the site US-Slt Silas Little- New Jersey. This is the FLUXNET version of the carbon flux data for the site US-Slt Silas Little- New Jersey produced by applying the standard ONEFlux (1F) software. Site Description - Wildfires, prescribed fires, insect defoliation events and windstorms are the common disturbances in the NJ Pinelands. The oak-dominated forest at Silas Little Experimental Forest was most recently defoliated by Gypsy moth (Lymantria dispar L.) in 2006 to 2008, with complete defoliation occuring in 2007. Following this multi-year defoliation event, oak mortality was significant, and resulted in the death of approximately 20 % of the overstory oaks, and a similar reduction in stand biomass. Previous disturbances have included windstorms and earlier Gypsy moth defoliation events in the 1990's. The last major wildfire to occur at and near the Experimental Forest was in 1963. Since then, a number of prescribed fires have been conducted in the vicinity of the Silas Little flux site.

AmeriFlux FLUXNET-1F US-Twt Twitchell Island

This is the AmeriFlux Management Project (AMP) created FLUXNET-1F version of the carbon flux data for the site US-Twt Twitchell Island. This is the FLUXNET version of the carbon flux data for the site US-Twt Twitchell Island produced by applying the standard ONEFlux (1F) software. Site Description - The Twitchell Island site is a rice paddy that is owned by the state and managed by the California Department of Water Resources. While Bare Peat field was leveled for rice planting, the tower was installed on April 3, 2009. The rice paddy was converted from corn in 2007. In Summer 2009, Bispyribac-sodium and Pendimethalin herbicides were applied to the fields prior to rice planting and flooding, then pesticide and fertilizer application took place. Each year after rice is planted in the spring by drilling, the field is flooded. Then, the field is drained in early fall, rice is harvested, and the field site is moved.
