Abstract

Studies of the vertical distributions of CO₂ fluctuation
in a cornfield were made in the 4-to 0.25-cycle/min frequency
range. Amplitude of fluctuations decreased with
height above the ground. Frequency in this range appeared
rather constant, however. Sources and sinks for
CO₂ within the cornfield contribute to the fluctuations;
however, eddy structure originating inside and/or outside
the cornfield plays an important role too.
