Eddy fluxes of CO2 estimated using a sonic anemometer and a closed-path analyser were, on average, 16% lower than those obtained with the same anemometer and an adjacent open-path CO1 analyser. Covariances between vertical windspeed and CO2 density from the closed-path analyser were calculated using

Flux densities of carbon dioxide were measured over an arid, vegetation-free surface by eddy covariance techniques and by a heat budget-profile method, in which CO\* concentration gradients were specified in terms ofmixing ratios. This method showed negligible fluxes ofCO,, consistent with the baren
Eddy correlation equipment was used to measure mass and energy fluxes over a soybean crop. A rapid response CO, sensor, a drag anemometer, a Lyman-alpha hygrometer and a fine wire thermocouple were used to sense the fluctuating quantities. Diurnal fluxes of sensible heat, latent heat and CO, were c
Methods of calibrating infrared CO2 analysers for sensitivity to CO2 and water vapour are described. Equations to correct eddy covariance CO2 flux measurements are presented for: (i) analyser cross-sensitivity to water vapour and the effects of density fluctuations arising from atmospheric fluxes of
