AmeriFlux US-CMW Charleston Mesquite Woodland
Abstract
This is the AmeriFlux version of the carbon flux data for the site US-CMW Charleston Mesquite Woodland. Site Description - Site is a riparian mesquite woodland located along an old alluvial terrace along the banks of the San Pedro River in southeastern Arizona. Site climate is semiarid with monsoonal (Jul-Sep) rainfall. The mesquite trees access groundwater from an alluvial aquifer recharged elsewhere. Site water balance is not closed and ET greatly exceeds precipitation. The understory grasses and forbs are rainfall dependent. This groundwater-dependent ecosystem is far more ebulliant and productive than the upland vegetation around it (shrublands and grasslands).
