✦ Synopsis

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 water vapour and sensible heat, (ii) flux losses caused by signal processing and limited instrument frequency response for open-and closed-path CO1 analysers, and (iii) flux losses resulting from damping of concentration fluctuations in a tube used to sample air for closed-path CO2 analysers. Examples of flux corrections required for typical instruments are presented.

The axis labels in Figure on p. 71 were interchanged, i.e., the y-axis should be H and the x-axis should be hE. As a result, the sentence beginning on line 6, p. 72 should read: Flux corrections increase with hE at any value of H for an analyser insensitive to water vapour (Figure ), whereas they d

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
