Myall Vale B FLUXNET: Eddy Covariance Flux Tower Measurements from Irrigated Field

FLUXNET release 2026_r1 provides processed flux tower measurements of energy and mass exchange between the surface and atmosphere. Data were processed using PyFluxPro and ONEFlux software to produce gap-filled Net Ecosystem Exchange (NEE), Gross Primary Productivity (GPP), and Ecosystem Respiration (ER). This dataset was produced by the Terrestrial Ecosystem Research Network as part of the FLUXNET Shuttle project and last updated in April 2026.

Use Cases

• Modeling Net Ecosystem Exchange (NEE) dynamics based on gap-filled flux tower data.
• Partitioning carbon flux into Gross Primary Productivity (GPP) and Ecosystem Respiration (ER) for ecosystem studies.
• Analyzing surface-atmosphere energy exchange using eddy covariance techniques.
• Studying carbon cycling in irrigated agricultural landscapes based on the Myall Vale B site description.

Strengths

• Data processed with established PyFluxPro and ONEFlux methodologies as referenced in Isaac et al. (2017) and Pastorello et al. (2020).
• Provides a final, gap-filled product for key carbon flux variables (NEE, GPP, ER).
• Site metadata includes specific location (near Boggabri, NSW), terrain (flat), and elevation (approximately 240 m).

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count and dataset size are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Data may reflect geographic and land-use bias specific to a single irrigated field site.
