This FLUXNET data set is freely available and is furnished for use by the 
research community. 

IMPORTANT DATA USE NOTE:

USERS SHOULD NOT USE THE MARCONI DATA FOR NEW ANALYSES. IT SHOULD BE USED ONLY
AS A HISTORICAL BASELINE OR REFERENCE DATA SET.

Users should obtain the most recent data from either the specific tower
investigators and/or check the FLUXNET Project Web Page
(http://daac.ornl.gov/FLUXNET/fluxnet.html) for updates.

Please kindly inform the site investigators of how you are using he data and
of any publication plans. If  the PI or members of their team feel that they
should be acknowledged or offered participation as authors, they will let you 
know and we assume that an agreement on such matters will be reached before 
publication. If your work directly competes with that of the PI's investigation 
team they may ask that they have the opportunity to submit a manuscript  
before you submit one that uses unpublished data. Please note that the data 
are subject to change. For information on updates for all of the Marconi data,
users are urged to check the FLUXNET Project Web Page
( http://daac.ornl.gov/FLUXNET/fluxnet.html ) and to communicate with the
contributing PIs before using the data.

Please acknowledge the data source (either the PI or the FLUXNET Web Site) 
as a citation or in the acknowledgments if the data are not yet published. 
In addition, when publishing, please acknowledge the agency that supported 
the flux tower research.  Lastly, we kindly request that those publishing 
papers using FLUXNET data please provide preprints to the scientists 
providing the data and to the data archive at the ORNL DAAC. 

If you have any questions, please contact the ORNL DAAC (uso@daac.ornl.gov).
