Continuous observations of CO2 and CH4 exchange from East-African rangelands por Merbold, Lutz, Odongo, Vincent O., Dowling, T., Fava, F., Glücks, I., Vrieling, A., Wooster, M., Leitner, Sonja

“…In contrast to CO2, CH4 fluxes are highly variable and depend particularly on wildlife and/or livestock being present in the fetch of the EC tower. In addition to EC measurements and given the need for scaling of our results, we relate CO2 and CH4 fluxes to simple remote sensing measurements of vegetation greenness derived from phenological cameras. …”
