STUDY AREA

FLUXPYR measurements and observations cover a large part of the Western, Central and Eastern Pyrenees, and are carried out in France, Andorra and Spain. Short masts, tall towers and various sensors (e.g. to measure CO2 or ozone concentration) are or will be located between 100 m and 2000 m asl. Aerial and satellite images for the whole Pyrenees are used, covering the period 1975 to present. The collaboration with local farmers and local authorities is essential for the implementation of the network and collection of relevant data.
