Neustift/Stubai Valley

Fluxnet Information
Site Name:	Neustift/Stubai Valley
Description:	Continuous eddy covariance flux measurements started in March 2001 (previously a pilot study with episodic eddy covariance measurements was conducted during June-December 2000); Bowen-ratio flux measurements have been conducted since June 1999. Meadow cut 2-3 times a year, montane grassland. Alpine climate, snow cover duration is approximately 90-120 days/year. Winter time air temperatures are regularly below -20 degrees C, summer time temperatures may reach 30 degrees C.
Status:	Active, core measurements presently being made
Country:	Austria
Fluxnet Site Code:	AT-Neu
