The CarboeuropeIP Ecosystem Component Database: data processing and availability Dario Papale, Markus Reichstein
Database Typically, the “bilateral meetings” talk…. Why do we need a database?
Modelers Flux people Knowledge in Modeling and data synthesis Knowledge in Eddy Covariance
What is it needed? • Data, provided by the PIs and shared with the scientific community • Data have to be with good quality (the user are not able to understand this looking to the dataset…) • Data have to be in the same format • Data have to be “ready to be used”
Data quality centralized checks Why do we need to correct the data if the PIs correctly apply all the quality checks? How many PIs are applying these tests/corrections correctly? How many PIs are reprocessing old data with new methods? and…..
Datasets available on the database Different levels of products and different versions Level 0.x Conversion (Site) Two steps quality checks Level 1.x QC I (Site & DB) Level 2.x QC II (DB)(semi-automatic) Level 3.x GF/FP/aggregation (DB)(automatic) Level 4.x
QC II for level 3 products Rg vs Potential radiation Rg vs PPFD ustar vs wind speed • Fluxes • Marginal or isolated points • Spikes • Low variability periods • Storage correction • With the storage measured using a profile system • Using the top-of-tower CO2 conc. u* filtering
Spikes detection method NB: these are low frequency spikes, different from the raw data spikes!!!!
Ustar threshold selection method M x selected as threshold if flux(x) >= M x 0.99 x This is done for 6 different temperature classes (only if no relation between T and u* are found) and for 4 season. Seasonal ustar is calculated as median on the 6 thresholds, for annual u* the maximum seasonal value is taken
… then we fill gaps with two methods (ANN and MDS) and calculate GPP and TER ….. BEVie 2002
