FluxPulse Version 1.0 (2025)

FluxPulse detects and bias-corrects rain-induced carbon pulses from eddy-covariance flux data across global drylands.

FluxPulse version 1.0 focuses on 34 global dryland sites, whose IGBP vegetation types belonging to Grasslands (GRA), Savannas (SAV), Open Shrublands (OSH), Closed Shrublands (CSH), and Woody Savannas (WSA).
Site locations and general characteristics could be found in https://fluxnet.org/.
