This release consists of flux tower measurements of the exchange of energy and mass between the surface and the atmospheric boundary-layer using eddy covariance techniques. Data were processed using PyFluxPro as described by Isaac et al. (2017) for the quality control and post-processing steps. The final, gap-filled product containing Net Ecosystem Exchange (NEE) partitioned into Gross Primary Productivity (GPP) and Ecosystem Respiration (ER) has been produced using the ONEFlux software as described in Pastorello et al. (2020). This data set has been produced as part of the FLUXNET Shuttle project.

The Mitchell Grass Rangelands flux tower is located near Longreach in western Queensland. The rangeland covers approximately 47 M ha (14% of Queensland and 6% of Australia). An eddy-covariance flux tower that continuously measures exchanges of carbon dioxide, water vapour and energy between the terrestrial ecosystem and atmosphere was installed at the site in mid-2018 in collaboration with TERN Ozflux. Funded by the Australian Government.
