Flux Tower Measurements from a Dryland Agricultural Site

Featuring flux tower measurements of energy and mass exchange between the surface and atmosphere in a farming area, processed using PyFluxPro (v3.5.0). The data includes gap-filled Net Ecosystem Exchange (NEE) partitioned into Gross Primary Productivity (GPP) and Ecosystem Respiration (ER). The site is a privately owned dryland field near Boggabri, New South Wales, with flat terrain at an elevation of 240 meters.

Use Cases

• Analyze Net Ecosystem Exchange (NEE) dynamics in a dryland agricultural setting to understand carbon balance.
• Partition NEE into Gross Primary Productivity (GPP) and Ecosystem Respiration (ER) to study ecosystem carbon fluxes.
• Model energy exchange between the surface and atmospheric boundary-layer using eddy covariance techniques.
• Investigate flux tower data from a specific geographic site near Boggabri, New South Wales, for regional climate studies.

Strengths

• Data processed using the standardized PyFluxPro (v3.5.0) software as described by Isaac et al. (2017).
• Provides a final, gap-filled product for key ecosystem exchange variables.
• Site-specific geographic details are provided, including location near Boggabri, New South Wales, and an elevation of 240 meters.

Limitations

• The dataset's size, row count, and specific column structure are unknown, limiting pre-analysis assessment.
• Available file formats are HTML and PNG, which may not be ideal for direct quantitative analysis without data extraction.
• The license is listed as 'notspecified', which could create uncertainty for downstream use and redistribution.
