AmeriFlux US-SCg Southern California Climate Gradient - Grassland
- University of California - Irvine
This is the AmeriFlux version of the carbon flux data for the site US-SCg Southern California Climate Gradient - Grassland. Site Description - Half hourly data are available at https://www.ess.uci.edu/~california/. This site is one of six Southern California Climate Gradient flux towers operated along an elevation gradient (sites are US-SCg, US-SCs, US-SCf, US-SCw, US-SCc, US-SCd). This site is a grassland that was historically dominated by exotic annuals and that underwent restoration with a focus on native bunch grasses in the 2010s. The site has historically burned every 10-20 years, with a wildfire in October 2007. The restoration involved several years of mowing and herbicide application to suppress exotics followed by dense planting of Nasella bunch grasses.
