AmeriFlux FLUXNET-1F US-xDS NEON Disney Wilderness Preserve (DSNY)

This is the AmeriFlux Management Project (AMP) created FLUXNET-1F version of the carbon flux data for the site US-xDS NEON Disney Wilderness Preserve (DSNY). This is the FLUXNET version of the carbon flux data for the site US-xDS NEON Disney Wilderness Preserve (DSNY) produced by applying the standard ONEFlux (1F) software. Site Description - The 12,000-acre Disney Wilderness Preserve straddles the headwaters of the Everglades ecosystem in south-central Florida. This site is seasonally wet and flooded. The Disney site was heavily logged and used as ranchland for decades. However, vegetation and site conditions have been restored to closely represent site condition records, documented by the area’s first Spanish missionaries. The large-scale wetland and upland restoration at Disney included the removal of non-native, invasive plants and grasses and the removal of agricultural ditches. The primary management activity is controlled burns.

This is the FLUXNET version of the carbon flux data for the site US-xSB NEON Ordway-Swisher Biological Station (OSBS) produced by applying the standard ONEFlux (1F) software. Site Description - The Ordway-Swisher Biological Station (OSBS) is operated by the University of Florida and comprises over 9,300 acres. It is a year-round field station established for the long-term study and conservation of unique ecosystems through management, research and education. The Station is located approximately 20 miles east of Gainesville in Melrose (Putnam County, Florida). There are two aquatic arrays at Ordway-Swisher, representing the two dominant aquatic features on the landscape: 1) Suggs lake, a shallow surface water lake that is rich in taxa and biologically active in structure and function; and 2) Barco lake, a deep lake connected to ground water. The forest is maintained by fire and has a relatively open structure: it is managed with prescribed burns at a frequency of 3-4 years.

AmeriFlux FLUXNET-1F US-AR1 ARM USDA UNL OSU Woodward Switchgrass 1

This is the AmeriFlux Management Project (AMP) created FLUXNET-1F version of the carbon flux data for the site US-AR1 ARM USDA UNL OSU Woodward Switchgrass 1. This is the FLUXNET version of the carbon flux data for the site US-AR1 ARM USDA UNL OSU Woodward Switchgrass 1 produced by applying the standard ONEFlux (1F) software. Site Description - The ARM USDA UNL OSU Woodward Switchgrass 1 tower is located on public land owned by the USDA-ARS Southern Plains Range Research Station in Woodward, Oklahoma. The site is on a former native prairie that is in the process of changing to switchgrass. A second companion site (ARM USDA UNL OSU Woodward Switchgrass 2) is on a former wheat field. In Spring 2009, the former native prairie site was burned, cattle were put on the pasture to graze down emergent grass, and broadleaf herbicide was sprayed. In Summer 2009, the cattle were removed from the pasture, and the site was sprayed with herbicide to kill all grass. In Spring 2010, prior to the planting of switchgrass, final herbicide was sprayed to kill cheat grass and to control broadleaf plants.

AmeriFlux FLUXNET-1F US-UMB Univ. of Mich. Biological Station

This is the AmeriFlux Management Project (AMP) created FLUXNET-1F version of the carbon flux data for the site US-UMB Univ. of Mich. Biological Station. This is the FLUXNET version of the carbon flux data for the site US-UMB Univ. of Mich. Biological Station produced by applying the standard ONEFlux (1F) software. Site Description - The UMBS site is located within a protected forest owned by the University of Michigan.

In successive years, several other species were harvested. Logging was discontinued in 1980 when the land became protected under the private ownership of the University of Michigan. Patchy low- to high-intensity wildfires occurred yearly from 1880 - 1920, essentially burning the entire region.

AmeriFlux FLUXNET-1F US-Wi6 Pine barrens #1 (PB1)

This is the AmeriFlux Management Project (AMP) created FLUXNET-1F version of the carbon flux data for the site US-Wi6 Pine barrens #1 (PB1). This is the FLUXNET version of the carbon flux data for the site US-Wi6 Pine barrens #1 (PB1) produced by applying the standard ONEFlux (1F) software. Site Description - The Wisconsin Pine Barrens site is located in the Washburn Ranger District of the northeastern section of Chequamegon National Forest. A member of the northern coniferous-deciduous biome, surveys from the mid-19th century indicate the region consisted of a mixed stand of red, white, and jack pines. After extensive timber harvesting, wildfires, and farming activity, the region turned into a fragmented mosaic of stands of various ages and composition. As an assemblage, the ten Wisconsin sites are indicative of the successional stages of development in the predominant stand types of a physically homogeneous landscape. In order to establish and maintain both natural and plantation jack pine stands, pine barrens undergo prescribed burns and harvesting rotations. Pine Barrens occupy 17% of the region in 2001.

AmeriFlux CA-LU1 Steen River

This is the AmeriFlux version of the carbon flux data for the site CA-LU1 Steen River. Site Description - Steen River is a peat plateau that burned in extreme fire conditions in late May 2019. Prior to the fire the site was likley and open canopy of stunted black spruce and a ground layer of Labrador tea shurbs and lichen or sphagnum with around >150cm of peat. All low shrubs were consumed by the fire, Sphagnum mosees were singed but not combusted, all the trees deceased with needles, tertiary, secondary branches consumed by fire and >30% of primary branches rmained.

AmeriFlux CA-LU2 Lutose

This is the AmeriFlux version of the carbon flux data for the site CA-LU2 Lutose. Site Description - Lutose is a peat plateau that burned from a moderate forest fire in June 2007. Prior to the fire the site was likley an open canopy of stunted black spruce and a ground layer of Labrador tea shurbs and lichen or sphagnum. No black spruce survived the fire and lichens were still completely absent during this study. By 2019, most charred tree boles has fallen over and vegetation recovery was dominated by dense Labrador tea shrubs and sparse regenerating black spruce with around >150cm of peat.

AmeriFlux US-NC5 NC Butner Farm

This is the AmeriFlux version of the carbon flux data for the site US-NC5 NC Butner Farm. Site Description - The US-NC5 flux tower is located within an 80-year-old mixed pine-hardwood forest at the Umstead Research Farm in Butner, North Carolina. The northern section of this 20-hectare Fall Lake Watershed of the Neuse River Basin in the Piedmont of North Carolina, USA. The Northern portion is currently a managed cattle farm, which is slated for expansion—necessitating forest clearing in the flux site. To establish a reference baseline, a year-long, all-season eddy covariance flux monitoring campaign will be conducted from April 2025 to March 2026. This effort aims to capture the carbon flux dynamics of the mature forest ecosystem prior to a planned land-use conversion. The site will be transitioned into a silvopasture, maintained through prescribed burning and cattle grazing to promote an open-canopy watershed structure. Flux measurements will continue after the conversion.
