Does anyone know of attempts to mount eddy covariance systems directly to a tree canopy (extending 10-15m above) as an alternative to tower installation?

As expected, the Trump team is already deleting climate info from government websites. In anticipation, our team at Urban Ocean Lab created a permanent archive of 100+ key resources and published a permanent archive: www.urbanoceanlab.org/resource-hub 👩🏽💻
