Research on the IPv6 and sensor network based terrestrial ecosystem flux research network

For the actual demand for carbon cycle research in China, from 2012 to 2013, we started the research and development on IPv6-based Chinese terrestrial ecosystem flux research network. We set up IPv6 and sensor network based real-time carbon flux observation system in ten field stations. We complete data acquisition, data transmission, data storage and sharing from flux observation tower to field station, then to data center. Researchers develop a series of scientific applications in the research network.
