Alfalfa flux footprint experiment 2021

    Four eddy-covariance (EC) sensors were deployed at two heights upwind and within alfalfa plot trials at San Joaquin Valley Ag Science Center. The purpose of the experiment was to evaluate the robustness of flux footprint models under different atmospheric stability conditions. At each of the two locations, an EC sensor was mounted at an unconventionally low height (~1 meter) and a second at a more typical height (~2.5 m). Supplementary sensors were co-located to measure net radiation, soil heat flux, and other parameters necessary to evaluate closure of the surface energy budget.
