LBA-ECO Data Survey
Background
To maintain the Large-Scale Biosphere Atmosphere Experiment in Amazonia - Ecosystem (LBA-ECO) data sets and to meet users’ needs, the
Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) Distributed Active Archive Center (DAAC) would like your help in identifying issues with LBA-ECO data
or documentation, and any difficulties you experienced in locating and acquiring the data sets. Information you provide will enable us to address
issues that need attention and aspects of LBA-ECO documentation that users would like to see clarified.
