This is the AmeriFlux version of the carbon flux data for the site CA-Mer Ontario - Eastern Peatland, Mer Bleue. 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
This is the AmeriFlux version of the carbon flux data for the site CA-AF1 Acadia Research Forest. Site Description - The site is located in the Acadia Research Forest (managed by the Canadian Forest Service). The research forest is representative of the Acadian Forest Region in New Brunswick and Nova Scotia and comprises of mixed forest containing softwood, hardwood, and mixed-wood stands. The forest is managed and features different forest composition depending on management history.
This is the AmeriFlux version of the carbon flux data for the site US-EKH Elkhorn Slough Hester Marsh. Site Description - Salt marsh restored in 2018 by adding soil to raise 61 acres of former salt marsh to an elevation that allows marsh plants to return and keep pace with projected sea level rise. Marsh is mostly bare soil and tidal channels. Marsh is flooded and drained diurnally.
This is the AmeriFlux version of the carbon flux data for the site US-EKP Elkhorn Slough Porter Marsh. Site Description - Tidally restricted amd diked salt marsh. Berm and Islands with picklweek, cut by mudlats and an ephemeral creek.
This is the AmeriFlux version of the carbon flux data for the site US-UTM UFLUX Matheson. Site Description - This station is located in a wetland, surrounded by bulrushes
This is the AmeriFlux version of the carbon flux data for the site US-UTW UFLUX Wellington. Site Description - This station is located between two large pivots that irrigate alfalpha. The pivots are in line with the predominant wind direction. The farm is no-till and uses canal water to irrigate. The field is grazed by cattle in the early winter.
This is the AmeriFlux version of the carbon flux data for the site US-YNS North Star Yedoma. Site Description - Dry hillslope underlain by ice rich permafrost and now covered with native grasses and managed as a rustic golf course. The land clearing performed decades ago has caused permafrost thawing, surface subsidence, and development of thermokarst mounds or baidjarahks. No foreign fill materials, pesticides or fertilizers have been used, and the area is not irrigated. The area outside the flux footprint is second growth deciduous forest with similar soil conditions.
This is the AmeriFlux version of the carbon flux data for the site US-A37 ARM-SGP-Waukomis. Site Description - The E37 site is located in the middle of a grassy field with a cultivated field to the South, near Waukomis, Oklahoma.
This is the AmeriFlux version of the carbon flux data for the site CA-Mtk Mittimatalik (Pond Inlet) Tundra. Site Description - Mesic to dry tundra with dwarf shrubs, grasses, forbs, and moss vegitation. Thin organic soil layer of 10 cm with sandy soils.
This is the AmeriFlux version of the carbon flux data for the site US-AMS Argonne Testbed for Multiscale Observational Science (ATMOS). Site Description - This tower is located at Argonne National Laboratory approximately 2 km north of the Des Plaines river and 115 m NNW from the ATMOS meteorological tower. It is downwind of a seasonally wet grassland bordered by forest 40 m N of the flux tower. The area was managed by controlled burns until 2019.
