Eddy covariance monitoring station at Horseshoe Lake, Mammoth Mountain, California
Detailed Description
The eddy covariance station shown in this photo has been continuously measuring CO₂ emissions since 2014, providing half-hourly measurements of volcanic gas flux. Unlike previous seasonal monitoring that was limited by snowpack, this 6-meter-tall tower setup with commercial power allows year-round operation - a first for volcanic gas monitoring in this environment.
