Importance of the Webb, Pearman, and Leuning (WPL) correction for the measurement of small CO2 fluxes

The WPL (Webb, Pearman, and Leuning) correction is fully accepted to correct trace gas fluxes like CO2 for density fluctuations due to water vapour and temperature fluctuations for open-path gas analysers. It is known that this additive correction can be on the order of magnitude of the actual flux....
