Benefits and Features

) Accesses final fluxes quickly without the burden of postprocessing

) Produces flux output tables that are smaller than time series tables, which allows flux data to be frequently collected using cellular, radio, or other lower-bandwidth telemetry options

) Available at no charge; see Downloads section on web page

) Matches the fluxes provided by PC post-processing software packages (assuming same filtering of raw data and same selection of correction procedures)

) Saves high frequency time series to removable media in case reprocessing is later needed

) Includes data quality and footprint characteristics

) Reports uncorrected and intermediate values inan auxiliary output table for more detailed data inspection

) Provides for CR6 program fully processed data output in AmeriFlux format

Technical Description

Provides fully corrected outputs of CO; flux, latent heat flux, and sensible heat flux at a user-defined interval (e.g, 30 minutes). Also provides many other variables of atmospheric properties, instrument diagnostics, intermediate corrections, and other energy balance or biomet sensors. Comparisons of flux outputs have shown good agreement with other common post-processing software packages when applying the same set of corrections.
