Abstract

This is the AmeriFlux version of the carbon flux data for the site US-SCd Southern California Climate Gradient - Sonoran Desert. 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 low desert site in Southern California's rain shadow; the climate is extremely dry and hot. The site has experience repeated droughts, with negligible rainfall during several years of the record.

AmeriFlux AmeriFlux US-SCs Southern California Climate Gradient - Coastal Sage

Dataset Goulden, Mike

This is the AmeriFlux version of the carbon flux data for the site US-SCs Southern California Climate Gradient - Coastal Sage. 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 coastal sage shrubland. Coastal sage is a small stature, closed canopy vegetation dominated by drought deciduous shrubs. The site has historically burned every 10-20 years, with the wild fire in October 2007. The tower data sets includes this recovery process.
AmeriFlux AmeriFlux US-SCg Southern California Climate Gradient - Grassland

Dataset Goulden, Mike

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 yearsmore »« less
AmeriFlux AmeriFlux US-SCf Southern California Climate Gradient - Oak/Pine Forest

Dataset Goulden, Mike

This is the AmeriFlux version of the carbon flux data for the site US-SCf Southern California Climate Gradient - Oak/Pine Forest. 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 mixed oak/pine forest. The site experiences episodic severe drought and mortality, and has also experienced occasional logging and wildfire. Drought and mortality was especially severe in the early 2000s.
AmeriFlux AmeriFlux US-SCw Southern California Climate Gradient - Pinyon/Juniper Woodland

Dataset Goulden, Mike

This is the AmeriFlux version of the carbon flux data for the site US-SCw Southern California Climate Gradient - Pinyon/Juniper Woodland. 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 Pinyon Juniper woodland with trees that are at least 150 years old, and ephemeral herbaceous cover following winter or spring rains. The site has experienced repeated drought during the record and roughly 50% Pinyon mortality over the last decade. Amore »« less
AmeriFlux AmeriFlux US-ADR Amargosa Desert Research Site (ADRS)

Dataset Moreo, Michael

This is the AmeriFlux version of the carbon flux data for the site US-ADR Amargosa Desert Research Site (ADRS). Site Description - This tower is located at the Amargosa Desert Research Site (ADRS). The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) began studies of unsaturated zone hydrology at ADRS in 1976. Over the years, USGS investigations at ADRS have provided long-term "benchmark" information about the hydraulic characteristics and soil-water movement for both natural-site conditions and simulated waste-site conditions in an arid environment. The ADRS is located in a creosote-bush community adjacent to disposal trenches for low-level radioactive waste.
