Forest Carbon Flux Measurements From Tasmanian Tall Eucalyptus Ecosystem

Warra FLUXNET Release 2026_r1 contains flux tower measurements of energy and mass exchange between a forest surface and the atmosphere. The Terrestrial Ecosystem Research Network processed the data using PyFluxPro and ONEFlux software to produce final, gap-filled products. This release was published as part of the FLUXNET Shuttle project and updated in April 2026.

Use Cases

• Model Net Ecosystem Exchange (NEE) dynamics from continuous tower measurements in a managed forest landscape.
• Partition NEE into Gross Primary Productivity (GPP) and Ecosystem Respiration (ER) components for carbon budget analysis.
• Analyze relationships between carbon dioxide flux and concurrent weather or soil condition measurements like moisture and temperature.
• Study energy and water vapor exchange using eddy covariance techniques in a tall Eucalyptus obliqua forest with rainforest understorey.

Strengths

• Data processed with standardized FLUXNET methodologies, PyFluxPro and ONEFlux, ensuring comparability with a global network.
• Includes final, gap-filled product for key carbon flux variables (NEE, GPP, ER), reducing data preparation effort.

Limitations

• Specific temporal coverage, row count, and measurement frequency are not provided in the description.
• Geographic scope is limited to a single tower site in south-western Tasmania.
