/ FOREST SITE DE INSLAG, BRASSCHAAT, Belgium
USE OF METEOROLOGICAL
and EDDY FLUX DATA
General:
The meteorological data
of the state forest De Inslag (Brasschaat, Belgium) on this CD have been
processed from data kindly provided by the Institute for Forestry and Game
Management (IFG, Geraardsbergen, Belgium). The eddy covariance data of
the state forest De Inslag (Brasschaat, Belgium) on this CD have been processed
from data collected by the Department of Biology, Research Group of Plant
and Vegetation Ecology of the University of Antwerpen (UIA, Wilrijk, Belgium).
All data were checked, filled
to provide complete records, and processed into a consistent format. This
is the first release of the data, but the data are subject to change. Users
are urged to communicate with the Institute for Forestry and Game
Management and/or the University of Antwerpen, UIA, and are reminded that
data, when used for publication, are subject to IFG fair use rules.
Fair Use Policy:
Kindly keep us informed
of how you are using our data and of any publication plans. If we
feel that we should be acknowledged or offered participation as authors,
we will let you know and we assume that an agreement on such matters will
be reached prior to publishing the data. If your work directly competes
with our analysis we may ask that we have the opportunity to submit a manuscript
before you submit one that uses our data. Anyone planning to publish or
use meteorological data should both notify the Institute for Forestry and
Game Management and cite the below-listed reports and papers describing
the data collection methodology. Anyone planning to publish or use the
eddy covariance flux data should both notify the Research Group of Plant
and Vegetation Ecology, Department of Biology, University of Antwerpen,
UIA, and cite the below-listed references describing the data collection
methodology and first analysis.
