Summary:

The BOREAS TF-09 team collected energy, carbon dioxide and water vapor flux data at the BOREAS SSA-OBS site during the growing season of 1994 and most of the year for 1996. From the winter of 1995 to 1996, soil temperature data were also collected and provided.

A guide document which includes more information about this data set can be found at https://daac.ornl.gov/daacdata/boreas/TF/tf9tflxd/comp/TF09_Flux_Met.txt.

ORNL DAAC maintains information on the entire BOREAS Project.
