This is the AmeriFlux version of the carbon flux data for the site US-NR1 Niwot Ridge Forest (LTER NWT1). Site Description - The Niwot Ridge US-NR1 AmeriFlux site is located in a subalpine forest ecosystem 8 km east of the Continental Divide near Nederland, CO. The site is located at 3050 m elevation, within 600m of the LTER C-1 long-term monitoring station. The subalpine forest at the site was selectively logged in the early 1900s and the forest has not had any major disturbance since then (Burns, S.P., (2018), The Influence of Warm-Season Precipitation on Water Cycling and the Surface Energy Budget within and just-above a Colorado Subalpine Forest in Mountainous Terrain: Measurements and Modeling, PhD Thesis, https://scholar.colorado.edu/geog_gradetds/125/).
