Bad weather doesn’t prevent Kathi and Albin from doing maintanence at our flux tower at Lake Mondsee. 

The vegetation period is progressing at our study sites around Huaraz, as can be seen in the picture showing potatoe plants emerging at the EC flux tower site in Llupa.

Meanwhile the new AWS has been set up in the Cordillera negra close to the village of Chincay.


Today Felix and Katharina are out at Leinefelde (flux tower run by Alex Knohl and his group) to bring back the COS laser and the Moni-PAM system, which have been at the site together with a SIF system (FLOX box) by MPI (Mirco Migliavacca) since September and early summer, respectively.

As negotiated with the owner of the field where the EC tower has been set up, the field has been plowed and seeded with potatoes (also below the net radiometer to ensure the same footprint conditions).
