This is the AmeriFlux version of the carbon flux data for the site US-RGB Butte County Rice Farm. Site Description - Commercially farmed, mid-grain japonica rice variety, field in Butte County, California. Part of a five-year, ground-truthing field study under the DOE ARPA-E SMARTFARM project. Field is approx. 30 ha in size in three checks with commercial rice over rice rotation on silty clay loam.
This is the AmeriFlux version of the carbon flux data for the site US-PFo SE1 Lake-2 CHEESEHEAD 2019. Site Description - This tower (1.17m buoy) is located in the southeastern quadrant of the 10 x 10km study domain. It is located on a buoy (1.17 m asl) in the center of a small bog lake (50-70 m across) surrounded by mixed hardwood forest (maple, oak) about 16 m high.

This is the AmeriFlux version of the carbon flux data for the site US-SSH Susquehanna Shale Hills Critical Zone Observatory. Site Description - The Susquehanna Shale Hills Critical Zone Observatory is comprised of one first-order catchment in the Susquehanna River basin. This catchment, known as Shale Hills, is about 8 hectares in total area. The stream that defines the Shale Hills catchment flows into Shavers Creek in the Juniata River sub-basin. The vegetation cover at Shale Hills is dominated by deciduous broadleaf forest, with some evergreen needleleaf trees along the stream.
This is the AmeriFlux version of the carbon flux data for the site US-Hsm Hill Slough Marsh. Site Description - The site is currently a diked marsh - upland ecotone located at the northern Suisun Marsh. It will undergo tidal restoration in Fall 2021. Restoration work is done by Ducks Unlimited Inc. and will cover an area of 649 acres. After levee breaches, the site tower will be in a high marsh system. Water level at high tide is estimated to be 0.5-1 m above the soil. Ducks Unlimited, Inc. and the Berkeley Biometeorology lab are working together to evaluate the effects of the proposed tidal marsh restoration project.
This is the AmeriFlux version of the carbon flux data for the site US-PFf NW5 Grass-1 CHEESEHEAD 2019. Site Description - This tower (2m tripod) is located in the northwestern quadrant of the 10 x 10km study domain. It is located in a grassy field. It is ocassionally mowed. It was located near (~200m) several different types of sounding systems.
This is the AmeriFlux version of the carbon flux data for the site US-DS3 Staten Rice 1. Site Description - This tower is located in a rice field in the California Delta on Staten Island. The tower is within a few square kilometers of rice fields that comprise the vast majority of the southwestern portion of Staten Island. This is part of a multi-year, ground-truthing field study under the DOE ARPA-E SMARTFARM project.
This is the AmeriFlux version of the carbon flux data for the site US-Cst Crossett Experimental Forest. Site Description - The study takes place in the Crossett Experimental Forest (CEF, 32°2′ N, 91°57′ W), which was established in 1934 with the objective of developing effective management protocols for loblolly and shortleaf pine forests in the Gulf Coastal Plain. Mean annual temperature and precipitation are 17.6 °C and 1,410 mm, respectively. Most of the soils on and near the CEF are silt loams (primarily Glossaquic Fragiudalfs). The tower is situated in the the old-growth pine management sector of the CEF, which emphasizes management for old-growth-like conditions, with the goal of emulating the structural and compositional attributes of historic forests from this region using a combination of timber harvesting, prescribed fire, and other tools. This includes periodic commercial logging of intermediate-sized loblolly pines to support further restoration treatments, such as prescribed fire, hardwood and exotic species competition control, and the increase of plant species more compatible with fire (e.g., shortleaf pine and understory grasses)
This is the AmeriFlux version of the carbon flux data for the site US-Mo2 LTAR CMRB Tucker Prairie (CMRB TP). Site Description - Tucker Prairie is a 59 ha tract of virgin tall grass prairie in Callaway County, Missouri. This tract of land is the largest prairie remnant in mid-Missouri. It has never been plowed
This is the AmeriFlux version of the carbon flux data for the site US-Dmg Dutch Slough Marsh Gilbert Tract. Site Description - A new restored tidal freshwater wetland located on the west Delta, within Oakley, CA. The tower is located in the eastern side of the Gilbert Parcel seeing the mid marsh transition zone upwind. Restoration work is done by DWR and started in 2018, revegetation planting started in late 2019, followed by tidal action restoration in October 2021.
