Delta‐Flux: An Eddy Covariance Network for a Climate‐Smart Lower Mississippi Basin

This article describes the rationale to create the new Delta-Flux network, which will coordinate efforts to quantify carbon and water budgets at seventeen eddy covariance flux tower sites in the Lower Mississippi River Basin.
