Field assessments on the impact of CO2 concentration fluctuations along with complex-terrain flows on the estimation of the net ecosystem exchange of temperate forests [PDF]
CO2 storage (Fs) is the cumulation or depletion in CO2 amount over a period in an ecosystem. Along with the eddy covariance flux and wind-stream advection of CO2, it is a major term in the net ecosystem CO2 exchange (NEE) equation.

Spatial analysis of PM2.5 using a concentration similarity index applied to air quality sensor networks [PDF]
Air quality sensor (AQS) networks are useful for mapping PM2.5 (particles with a diameter of 2.5 µm or smaller) in urban environments, but quantitative assessment of the observed spatial and temporal variation is currently underdeveloped.
