Notice Title

3 flux tower systems for peatlands

Notice Description

3 x new eddy covariance (EC) flux stations, including CPEC310 H2O/CO2 infrared gas analysers (IRGA), are required to measure mass and energy fluxes as part of 07667 BBSRC GGR Peatland C Farming project. The Campbell Scientific Ltd. (CSL) instruments and parts are essential for enabling the continuation of long-term flux measurements that maintains compatibility with the wider UKCEH flux tower network and other projects within the same GGR research programme. Additionally the CPEC310 instrument continues to provide crucial data and insights into instrument performance and flux analyses across the existing network. This therefore has potential to significantly influence this field of research.
