Description |
Aircraft landings, departures, and running aircraft on the airport pad were found to produce spikes in the half hourly CO2 flux and small spikes in CO2 concentration on many days during the entire deployment of the AMF1 at GRW. This influence sometimes occurred multiple periods in a day; this was typical of the year of data. The spikes range from only several micromoles s-1 m-2 to one hundred or more for flux (a typical spike was in the twenties) and near zero to 1.0 mmoles m-3 for CO2 concentration (typically around 0.15).
Occasionally an influence on water vapor density was detected, but this was fairly rare and usually of very small magnitude.
