Challenges in Measuring Greenhouse Gas Fluxes
• Measuring/Interpreting greenhouse gas flux in a quasi-continuous manner for days, years and decades
• Measuring/Interpreting fluxes over Patchy, Microbially-mediated Sources (e.g. CH4, N2O)
• Measuring/Interpreting fluxes of Temporally Intermittent Sources (CH4, N2O, O3, C5H8)
• Measuring/Interpreting fluxes over Complex Terrain• Developing New Sensors for Routine Application of Eddy Covariance,
or Micrometeorological Theory, for trace gas Flux measurements and their isotopes (CH4, N2O,13CO2, C18O2)
• Measuring fluxes of greenhouse gases in Remote Areas without ac line power

Flux Methods Appropriate for Slower Sensors, e.g. FTIR
• Relaxed Eddy Accumulation
• Modified Gradient Approach
• Integrated Profile
• Disjunct Sampling

• Introduces No Sampling artifacts, like chambers• Quasi-continuous• Integrative of a Broad Area, 100s m2
• In situ

Signal Attenuation:The Role of Filtering Functions and Spectra
• High and Low-pass filtering via Mean Removal– Sampling Rate (1-10Hz) and Averaging Duration (30-60 min)
• Digital sampling and Aliasing• Sensor response time• Sensor Attenuation of signal
– Tubing length and Volumetric Flow Rate– Sensor Line or Volume averaging
• Sensor separation– Lag and Lead times between w and c

M.Detto and D. Baldocchi
Comparing Co-spectra of open-path CO2 & H2O sensor and closed-path CH4 sensor
Co-Spectra are More Forgiving of Inadequate Sensor Performance than Power SpectraBecause there is little w-c correlation in the inertial subrange

Towards Annual SumsAccounting for Systematic and Random Bias Errors
• Advection/Flux Divergence• U* correction for lack of adequate turbulent mixing at night• QA/QC for Improper Sensor Performance
– Calibration drift (slope and intercept), spikes/noise, a/d off-range– Signal Filtering
• Software Processing Errors• Lack of Fetch/Spatial Biases
– Sorting by Appropriate Flux Footprint
• Change in Storage• Gaps and Gap-Filling

Limits and Criteria for Network Design for Treaty Verification
• Can We Statistically-Sample or Augment Regional, Continental and Global Scale C Budgets with a Sparse Network of Flux Towers?
• If Yes:– How Many Towers are Enough?– Where Should the Towers Be?– How Good is Good Enough with regards to Fluxes?– How Long Should We Collect Data?
![Page 44: Dennis Baldocchi University of California, Berkeley JASON GHG Emissions Monitoring](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081502/568166e7550346895ddb256c/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
How many Towers are needed to estimate mean NEE, GPPand assess Interannual Variability, at the Global Scale?
Green Plants Abhor a Vacuum, Most Use C3 Photosynthesis, so we May Not need to be Everywhere, All of the Time
We Need about 75 towers to produce Robust and Invariant Statistics
