Intercomparison of eddy-covariance daytime fluxes at three mountain sites

The Alps are very sensitive to climate and land cover changes. In the past years, a growing interest towards understanding the water and carbon exchanges in the mountains led to an increasing number of studies. However, the complexity of these environments determines many uncertainties from a methodological and ecological point of view. Therefore, there is a need to compute and compare flux data collected at different, high-altitude and complex sites. Such studies will improve the knowledge about the impact of local morphology on measurements.
