5th annual NEON Surface Atmosphere Exchange Workshop | AGU 2018

Continuing a tradition, we present the 5^th annual NEON Surface Atmosphere Exchange Workshop at the 2018 AGU Fall Meeting. There have been many developments in the last year, including:

• 19 eddy-covariance data products available from NEON’s Data Portal;
• 14 NEON sites registered with AmeriFlux, data submission imminent;
• Publicly available code packages on GitHub;
• Tutorials and other training materials for working with NEON data;
• Development and Operations framework for direct community input.

We will explore these NEON Surface Atmosphere Exchange resources and solicit input to guide development of NEON SAE community resources for 2019. Additionally, the workshop offers hands-on tutorials utilizing eddy4R vignettes in a cloud-computing environment.

Workshop Goals

• Explore these NEON SAE resources
• Solicit input to guide development of NEON SAE community resources for 2019
• Test CyVerse cloud compute environment for hosting code tutorials
• Provide a forum to discuss important topics in the SAE community, with the hope to answer the following three questions:
  • What are the goals the breakout groups suggest?
  • What can the community do to achieve goals?
  • How can NEON help achieve goals?

Before attending the workshop, please read about the eddy4R package:
