A Brief Practical Guide to
Eddy Covariance Flux Measurements

A Brief Practical Guide to Eddy Covariance Flux Measurements (published November 2010) was developed to help researchers who wish to know more about the eddy covariance method and how to properly make these measurements. It emphasizes general principles, requirements, applications, and processing steps of the eddy covariance method — from planning the experiment, to deploying the equipment, through data processing. Additional information is provided on frequently overlooked details and basic concepts of eddy covariance measurements. This book draws together information from numerous academic sources to provide an easy to understand, objective overview of eddy covariance measurements.

The book on the eddy covariance method was written by LI-COR Principal Scientist George Burba with assistance from Application Scientist Dan Anderson.

Dr. Burba has been an integral member of the advanced research and development group responsible for research and development of fast-response gas analyzers. He authored and co-authored over 130 journal and conference papers, books, and book chapters relevant to eddy covariance techniques, and has been an invited speaker at international conferences on flux measurements.

Dan Anderson has extensive experience with LI-COR's instruments for eddy covariance measurements in various data acquisitions systems and has supported scientists on the topics of environmental instrumentation for over 20 years, including LI-COR support provided for the Ameriflux, CarboEurope, ICOS, Asia Flux, Canadian Carbon Program, NEON, Fluxnet, and other flux networks.
