Station Equipment

Turbulence is measured on five heights (30, 50, 70, 90, an 110 m) using METEK uSonic Class A, PT100 based temperature, atm. pressure and relative humidity sensors.

Eddy covariance measurements use additionally LI-7200 on 30 and 70 m height.

Gases are sampled on all five heights and ozone is analysed using Thermo Scientific 49i, NO/NO₂/NOx analysed by Thermo Scientific 42 TL, and SO₂ by Thermo Scientific 43i.

Greenhouse gases CO₂, CH₄, H₂O, and CO are analysed by Los Gatos GGA 30r and Picarro G2401.

Radiation measurements for total and diffuse incoming solar radiation and total and diffuse reflected radiation are measured using Δ-T SPN1 sunshine pyranometer.

Meteorological measurements (temperature, relative humidity, atmospheric pressure, rain and hail detection are provided by Vaisala Weather transmitter WXT520 systems.

Two 30 m high ecosystem towers located in a coniferous and a deciduous dominated forest stand are available. The towers are equipped with METEK uSonic Class A and USA-1 scientific anemometers. There are LI-7200 gas analysers for Eddy covariance measurements installed. Nano aerosol and air ion fluxes are measured using NAIS. Solar radiation is measured using the Skyspec spectrometer.

Soil fluxes are measured using manual chambers and ADC Bioscience automatic chamber systems. The measurements are done in episodes.

Permanent sample plots.

An aerosol cottage equipped with NAIS and EAS measurement systems is available.

The measurement system uses LI-7200, Campbell CSAT-3.

Measurements of volatile organic compounds have been done in episodes using Carbotrap/GCMS sampling and analysis systems.

The measurement system uses METEK uSonic Class A and Rotronic temperature and humidity sensors. Measurements take place on 25, 50, 110, and 200 m.
