TL;DR: In this paper, a new approach was developed to project turbulent flux maps at regional scale and hourly temporal resolution using environmental response functions (ERFs), which is based on an approach employed in airborne flux observations, and relates turbulent flux observations to meteorological forcings and surface properties across the flux footprint.

TL;DR: The systematic development of portable, reproducible, and extensible EC software achieved by adopting a development and systems operation (DevOps) approach is presented and the modular extensibility of eddy4R to analyze EC data from other platforms is demonstrated.

TL;DR: The National Ecological Observatory Network (NEON) as discussed by the authors is a multidecadal and continental-scale observatory with sites across the United States, which was established by the National Geographic Society.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a method to estimate the true net surface-atmosphere exchange (NSAE) over a virtual control volume (VCV) by applying the environmental response function (ERF) technique to a virtual volume.
