TCO - Terrestrial Carbon Observations database

Entry ID: GTOS_TCO

[ Update this Record ]

Summary

Abstract: The TCO network will use a dual constraint system approach that
permits the estimation of fluxes between the terrestrial surface and
other earth system components, the atmosphere and the oceans. The
observation strategy will use various measurement techniques and
models to minimize estimation errors. This will be achieved through
the coupling of two main flux ...
