Citation: Elyn Humphreys (2025), AmeriFlux BASE CA-PB2 Polar Bear 2 - Fen, Ver. 2-5, AmeriFlux AMP, (Dataset). https://doi.org/10.17190/AMF/2998640
Study Site: Ontario
Purpose: Ontario Ministry of Environment and Climate Change's Environmental Monitoring and Reporting Branch has established five carbon flux monitoring towers in Ontario’s Far North as part of its Climate Change Modelling and Monitoring program. These long term monitoring stations measure carbon exchange and a suite of soil and meteorological parameters over peatland ecosystems to better understand carbon cycling in Ontario’s Far North.
Abstract: This is the AmeriFlux version of the carbon flux data for the site CA-PB2 Polar Bear 2 - Fen. Information produced by these monitoring stations will assist the province in land use planning and the development of climate change adaptation strategies.
