The FLUXNET2015 dataset and the ONEFlux processing pipeline for eddy covariance data

The FLUXNET2015 dataset provides ecosystem-scale data on CO2, water, and energy exchange between the biosphere and the atmosphere, and other meteorological and biological measurements, from 212 sites around the globe (over 1500 site-years, up to and including year 2014). These sites, independently managed and operated, voluntarily contributed their data to create global datasets. Data were quality controlled and processed using uniform methods, to improve consistency and intercomparability across sites. The dataset is already being used in a number of applications, including ecophysiology studies, remote sensing studies, and development of ecosystem and Earth system models. FLUXNET2015 includes derived-data products, such as gap-filled time series, ecosystem respiration and photosynthetic uptake estimates, estimation of uncertainties, and metadata about the measurements, presented for the first time in this paper. In addition, 206 of these sites are for the first time distributed under a Creative Commons (CC-BY 4.0) license. This paper details this enhanced dataset and the processing methods, now made available as open-source codes, making the dataset more accessible, transparent, and reproducible.Peer reviewe

L'arte dell'equilibrista. La pratica sportiva come allenamento del corpo e formazione del carattere

Il volume esplora i principali ingredienti della pratica sportiva: fatica, impegno, coraggio, agonismo, amicizia, lealt\ue0, sfida personale; ma anche imbroglio, doping, egoismo, narcisismo. Come un equilibrista, sempre esposto al rischio della caduta, l\u2019atleta deve infatti dimostrarsi capace di contemperare i molti valori che rendono gustosa la pratica sportiva, senza lasciarsi tentare dall\u2019apparente semplicit\ue0 di ricette troppo semplici. Gli autori che si alternano la parola all\u2019interno di questa riflessione corale condividono la persuasione che lo sport possa rappresentare, ad un tempo, una buona pratica di vita e una metafora efficace per l\u2019educazione alla vita buona. Una possibilit\ue0 niente affatto scontata, che per realizzarsi richiede consapevolezza, volont\ue0 e dedizione

The FLUXNET2015 dataset and the ONEFlux processing pipeline for eddy covariance data

Abstract The FLUXNET2015 dataset provides ecosystem-scale data on CO2, water, and energy exchange between the biosphere and the atmosphere, and other meteorological and biological measurements, from 212 sites around the globe (over 1500 site-years, up to and including year 2014). These sites, independently managed and operated, voluntarily contributed their data to create global datasets. Data were quality controlled and processed using uniform methods, to improve consistency and intercomparability across sites. The dataset is already being used in a number of applications, including ecophysiology studies, remote sensing studies, and development of ecosystem and Earth system models. FLUXNET2015 includes derived-data products, such as gap-filled time series, ecosystem respiration and photosynthetic uptake estimates, estimation of uncertainties, and metadata about the measurements, presented for the first time in this paper. In addition, 206 of these sites are for the first time distributed under a Creative Commons (CC-BY 4.0) license. This paper details this enhanced dataset and the processing methods, now made available as open-source codes, making the dataset more accessible, transparent, and reproducible
