Abstract:
This repository contains all the data used for the article "Monitoring cropland daily carbon dioxide exchange at field scales with Sentinel-2 satellite imagery" by Pia Gottschalk, Aram Kalhori, Zhan Li, Christian Wille, Torsten Sachs. The data are used to exemplify how ground measured CO2 fluxes of an agricultural field can be linked with remotely sensed vegetation indices to provided an upscaling approach for spatial CO2-flux projection.
The provided data form the basis for running the data processing scripts sequentially for (re-)producing all statistical analyses, results and figures in the article. The data are given in the formats as used in the data-processing scripts written in R, MATLAB and JavaScript of Google Eearth Engine. All codes for processing the data and a workflow description can be found here.
The dataset covers three types of data: half-hourly eddy covariance (EC) data, satellite derived vegetation indices and GIS/image data.
Continuous EC CO2 fluxes (03/2020 - 08/2023) are measured at the agricultural site "Heydenhof" in Northeastern Germany. The data file is provided in .mat (MATLAB) format containing the standard EddyPro software output variables which are described in an accompanying meta data file. The land use information used for footprint modeling is included as .jpeg and .png-files for visulisation and as .mat-file to be used for running the footprint modeling script. Sentinel-2 vegetation indices are provided as .csv files. These files are provided for convenience and version control only as the JavaScript for generating Sentinel-2 derived vegetation indices in Google Earth Engine is provided in the associated code repository. Here, the field boundaries are provided as shape file.
