This is the AmeriFlux Management Project (AMP) created FLUXNET-1F version of the carbon flux data for the site US-xMB NEON Moab (MOAB). This is the FLUXNET version of the carbon flux data for the site US-xMB NEON Moab (MOAB) produced by applying the standard ONEFlux (1F) software. Site Description - The NEON MOAB site is located approximately 40 km south of the town of Moab and is characteristic of the Colorado Plateau. MOAB was selected with other sites that share a similar latitude in domains 10, 13, and 15, to assess dust generation, nutrient transport, and nutrient deposition. The western half of the site, including the tower airshed, is a grazed shrub land, often with pockets of barren soil. To the east, in the higher elevations, evergreen forests sit atop the mesas. Biological soil crust, dominated by cyanobacteria, is a living groundcover across the area.
