Relationships Beyond the (Ivory) Flux Tower
Abstract By deploying a growing worldwide network of observation towers monitoring land‐atmosphere exchanges of water vapor, carbon dioxide and energy, eddy‐covariance flux scientists have played a central role in understanding how natural and managed ecosystems function and respond to environmental change.

Quantifying Methane Emission Rates Using Downwind Measurements
This entry describes the methods used to quantify methane emissions from either point or area sources using downwind methods. The methods described could be used as a practical guide to quantify emissions of any trace gas type from either a point or area

Abstract Infrasound microbarometers deployed on the Earth's surface capture pressure fluctuations and acoustic signatures, revealing trends in surface wind speed and cycles in ambient sound. Previous studies investigated wind noise trends at quarter day resolution and urban acoustic background variations on hourly to weekly scales. Cyclic variations at

Methane exchange in a boreal forest estimated by gradient method [PDF]
Forests are generally considered to be net sinks of atmospheric methane (CH4) because of oxidation by methanotrophic bacteria in well-aerated forests soils.

Abstract A sea‐breeze (SB) initiation under land synoptic wind near a peninsula is analyzed by means of LiDAR measurements and large‐eddy simulations (LES) using the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) framework. In the simulation results, local SBs initiated over several coast segments converge in the morning and form a front near the peninsula. As

Water, Wildlife and the World: A Global Synthesis of Trends in Wildlife Ecohydrology Research
ABSTRACT Ecohydrology and hydroecology are interdisciplinary fields that examine the interactions between ecology and hydrology to address critical issues pertaining to both disciplines. However, the study of ‘ecology’ in ecohydrology research has largely focused on vegetation, leading to a gap in knowledge regarding direct relationships between ...

Using micrometeorological measurements in Brazil at the Amazon Tall Tower Observatory, the scalewise impact of thermal stratification on turbulent momentum fluxes is explored in the roughness sublayer and the atmospheric surface layer. A scalewise co‐spectral budget model developed here revealed that the turbulent momentum co‐spectrum Fwu(kx)$$ {F}_{wu}
