NACP Site-Level Synthesis
Site List
The NACP site interim synthesis is collecting simulations for
over 50
North American eddy covariance sites. For detailed site descriptions, see:
AmeriFlux site
information and Fluxnet Canada
Notes (apply to: Priority 1, Priority 2 ,and Priority 3 Sites):
1Start-end years in the gap-filled weather data. Partial
years (from flux data record)
have been extended to complete years of surface
weather data to simplify model
forcing.
2Types assigned for convenience in this project, to
identify combination of vegetation
type and climate zone as an aid in site
selection. These type names are not intended
to match the IGBP classification assigned in other databases:
CRO = crop, GRA = grassland,
ENFB = Evergreen needleleaf forest (boreal),
ENFT = evergreen needleleaf
forest (temperate), DBF = deciduous broadleaf forest,
MF = mixed (deciduous/evergreen) forest,
WSA = woody savanna, SHR = shrubland,
TUN = tundra, WET = wetland.
Priority 1 sites:
Primary sites with complete gap-filled forcing, flux, ancillary and biological data sets (36 sites). Sites in
bold ("Top-Ten" list) were suggested as a starting point for modeling groups providing simulations for the Fall AGU meeting in December 2008.
