Datasets

RAWDATA

Uncorrected 1-min raw data, no quality checks applied

FLUXL2AND3

Processed turbulence data with an averaging interval of 30 min for the two uppermost turbulence measurement levels at 10 and 30 m (processing was performed using EdiRe)

Processing includes despiking; double-rotation of the wind components; detrending with a recursive filter and a time constant of 200 s; and applying frequency-response corrections, heat-flux corrections for humidity effects, oxygen corrections for KH20, and WPL corrections. The datafile contains several quality flags.

FLUXL1

Processed turbulence data with an averaging interval of 30 min for the bottom turbulence measurement level at 4.0 m (processing was performed using EdiRe)

Processing includes despiking; double-rotation of the wind components; detrending with a recursive filter and a time constant of 200 s; and applying frequency-response corrections, heat-flux corrections for humidity effects, oxygen corrections for KH20, and WPL corrections. The datafile contains several quality flags.
