Yanco JAXA OzFlux tower site
The flux tower monitoring system is located within the Yanco region of New South Wales, Australia. Its purpose is to obtain data for validation of GCOM-W1 soil moisture products, which are components of a land surface data assimilation system. These data systems are important for land surface models, which rely on atmosphere-surface observations. Information provided by an existing network of soil moisture monitoring systems will also be used to validate the GCOM-W1 soil moisture product.
The Yanco area of the flux tower site is located in the western plains of the Murrumbidgee Catchment. This is a topographically flat area, primarily comprised of the following soil types: sandy loams, scattered clays, red brown earths, transitional red brown earth, sands over clay and deep sands. Stream valleys and layered soil and sedimentary materials are found across the landscape.
