Meteorological data sampled from the Alice Holt (Surrey) Flux Tower (1999-2012)
Summary
Meteorological data have been collected at the Alice Holt Flux tower since 1999, these data are used in combination with the data set ‘Net CO2 exchange, evaporation and heat flux data from Alice Holt plantation tower (1999-2013)’ to examine the main drivers in inter-annual variation in CO2 fluxes at an oak forest in the south of England.
