Components NEE – eddy covariance flux towers NPP – ecosystem field measurements MODIS – EOS Validation program Modeled NPP – ad hoc participation EMDI 3 Prototype exercise:
– 3 sites (history of timely data processing)° Harvard Forest – Bill Monger° UMBS – Peter Curtis° Metolius – Bev Law
– Scaling issues: ° NEE vs NPP° >1 km2 vs point° 0.5 hr vs daily
– Comparison statistics: correlations?

Flux-Model-MODIS Comparison
Fluxes: 17 towers – Micrometeorology posted near real-time
– Gap-filled flux estimates posted annually Models: 5 models participating (open to others)
– Common site characteristics–model driver data MODIS: 7 products for 52 sites (8-day composites)
– Surface Temperature, Vegetation Index, LAI, fPAR, Photosynthesis (8-day and annual), Surface Reflectance, BRDF
– Sites include Core Validation Sites, Flux Tower Sites, BigFoot Sites, Real Time Validation activity, and LAINet Sites

Comparison of Flux-Model-MODIS
Walker Branch– MODIS LAI compares favorably to 10-yrs LAI field
measurements– Springtime pattern is about the same
° Lotec is later
° MODIS PSN is earlier
– Lotec model NEP is about half measured NEE
Harvard Forest– Springtime pattern is about the same
° Lotec is later
° MODIS PSN is earlier
– Lotec model NEP is about same as measured NEE
