Methododical problems and deficits for evaluation of the advection terms (i.e. vertical profiles of wind velocity, CO2 concentrations and horizontal concentration gradients are strongly dependent on the experimental design)

Short duration of the MORE I experiment does not allow conclusions that are generally valid. Results have to be confirmed and/or adjusted by long term measurements.

Results published in:Feigenwinter, C., Bernhofer, C. and Vogt, R. (2004): The influence of advection on the short term CO2 budget in and above a forest canopy, Boundary-Layer Meteorology, in press.

Conclusions and outlookConclusions and outlook

Vertical and horizontal advection are in the same order of magnitude as the turbulent EC-flux of CO2

The large scatter of the mean advection terms is the result of a large day to day variability

Including the advection terms into the NEE equation significantly increases the nightly CO2 source and thus reduces the Carbon sink of the forest

There are still many methododical problems and only a few studies for comparison. The presented results may therefore only be characterisic for the specific site
