-
Canopy structure
-
Mean canopy height
-
Structural elements
tall conifers about 15 m. secondary canopy of smaller Aspen and pines at about 10 m. Not very dense, interspersed.
-
Topography
-
Altitude, Slope and aspect at site
-
Topographical setting in surrounding
Tower seems to be in a gentle trough with the road to its south. 466 m asl.
-
Local wind direction with respect to synoptic setting
No strong winds seen to deduce a preference.
Instrumentation
-
Air flow through infrastructure?
-
Visible tower motion?
-
Visible issues?
-
Adequate to capture possible sub-canopy flows, storage etc.
tower is setup well above the canopy. No visible issues. Or tower motion.
Other considerations
Krypton hygrometer? - is there CO2 flux being measured at this site?
acorn undergrowth
