Wellington Research Station Flux Data Collection

This dataset consists of measurements of the exchange of energy and mass between the surface and the atmospheric boundary-layer using eddy covariance techniques. Data were processed using PyFluxPro (v3.5.0) as described by Isaac et al. (2017). PyFluxPro produces a final, gap-filled product with Net Ecosystem Exchange (NEE) partitioned into Gross Primary Productivity (GPP) and Ecosystem Respiration (ER).<br /><br /> The Wellington Research Station flux tower is part of the network of Australian Critical Zone Observatories (OzCZO). The site vegetation is characterised by pastoral/woodland type. Climate of the site is represented by a humid subtropical climate type (Köppen), with hot summers and cool winters. Long term weather records from the Bureau of Meteorology (station no. 065035) states annual mean maximum temperatures of ca 22.8 °C, and mean minimum temperatures of ca 10.5 °C. The rainfall for the site is in the range from an annual lowest of 348.3 mm to annual highest of 1355.3 mm.
