AmeriFlux FLUXNET-1F US-Ne2 Mead - irrigated maize-soybean rotation site

This is the AmeriFlux Management Project (AMP) created FLUXNET-1F version of the carbon flux data for the site US-Ne2 Mead - irrigated maize-soybean rotation site. This is the FLUXNET version of the carbon flux data for the site US-Ne2 Mead - irrigated maize-soybean rotation site produced by applying the standard ONEFlux (1F) software. Site Description - The study site is one of three fields (all located within 1.6 km of each other) at the University of Nebraska Agricultural Research and Development Center near Mead, Nebraska. This site is irrigated with a center pivot system. Prior to the initiation of the study, the irrigated site had a 10-yr history of maize-soybean rotation under no-till. A tillage operation (disking) was done just prior to the 2001 planting to homogenize the top 0.1 m of soil, incorporate P and K fertilizers, as well as previously accumulated surface residues. Since this tillage operation, the site has been under no-till management.
