TitleEddy covariance flux tower data for Indianapolis, IN (INFLUX project)
Date2017
AbstractAs part of the Indianapolis Flux (INFLUX) experiment, the accuracy and biases of simulated meteorological fields were assessed for the city of Indianapolis, IN. A variety of meteorological observations were collected, including eddy covariance data. The flux tower, located east of downtown Indianapolis,utilizes a sonic anemometer (Campbell Scientific; CSAT-3), and a high-frequency open-path infrared water vapor and CO2 sensor (LI-COR Environmental; LI-7500). The flux instrumentation is mounted on a communications tower at a height of 30 meters.
