AMP webinar series

Welcome to the page on all things AMP Webinar. The AmeriFlux Management Project (AMP) series focuses on sharing a wide range of information relevant to the AmeriFlux community (e.g., website updates, tutorials on accessing AmeriFlux data, etc.). We want to provide helpful tools for flux scientists, every step of the way – from generating flux data to using them in cool science!

The AmeriFlux Management Project team designed its webinar series in response to the impacts of COVID-19 on AmeriFlux work and operations, out of a desire to strengthen information sharing between the AMP project team and members of the AmeriFlux community. While this series focuses on practical tutorials, also keep an eye on the associated science seminar series that we are co-sponsoring with the FLUXNET Early Career Network!

Our webinars are open to all, access is free, and registration is required. We will use virtual meeting software zoom for live webinars and provide links to recordings after the event. You don’t need to install zoom or have an account. Find out how to run it from a browser here.
