The Eddy Covariance method is a statistical tool analysing the properties of turbulent moving air parcels (Eddies) to determine the vertical fluxes of air constituents. It analyses high frequency wind and scalar atmospheric data series, and yields values of fluxes of these properties representing quite large areas. It measures the net ecosystem flux of carbon from vegetated areas over long periods in a non-invasive way.
- IMKO’s Eddy Covariance system comprises:
- Gill HS50 or R3 3-dimensional ultrasonic wind sensor
- LI-COR 7500 Open Path CO2/H2O Analyser
- EDDY Software Accessories (climate mast, power supply, laptop, etc.)
- Additional measurement parameters can be easily integrated in an ENVIS system. Just plug and measure. No time-consuming programming required!
Thus IMKO is supplying a completely preconfigured, quality tested system for immediate start after the hardware set-up.
