A python notebook to merge data from branch chambers located in a dought-exposed and experimentally irrigated plot in Yatir forest, with gas concentrations of H2O and CO2 measured using the LI-COR LI-7000 and LI-840a infrared gas analysers combined into a novel gas exchange measurement system. Data is gathered as follows:
- Gas concentrations of CO2 and H2O: LI-COR LI-7000 infrared gas analyser (IRGA)
- Auxiliary data: All collected into a Campbell CR1000 datalogger
There are 2 notebooks in this project, and the data is organised as follows:
- Raw data is in folder 01_raw_chamber_data, and logfiles are in 00_additional_data
- 01_chambers_v1.00.ipynb: This calculates corrected data in the folder 02_preprocessed_chamber_data. Data is organsed like this:
- raw_qc: Fully corrected data at the raw temporal resolution
- 1min: Means per chamber and measurement period of the last 30-60 measurements in 2s intervals, with calculated fluxes.
- 1h: Hourly means per plot
- 02_final_corrections_v0.1.ipynb: This adds one last layer of corrections, removing some remaining bad data from the 1min (per chamber) files. Outputs are stored in 03_processed_data.
The following python packages are required to read the FLIR files:
- Pandas
- Numpy
- Scipy
