AB: SpecNet ("Spectral Network") is a network of terrestrial sites where ecosystem flux measurements are supplemented with scale-appropriate optical measurements for the purpose of understanding carbon dioxide and water vapor fluxes. Results from several SpecNet sites are now leading to new insights into flux controls and offering improved remote sensing methods for detecting fluxes at the scale of the flux tower footprint. This presentation summarizes examples of sampling methods, key results from several SpecNet sites, and future directions for combined optical and flux sampling.
