In 1987 the Surface Flux Group of the First ISLSCP Field Experiment (FIFE) operated 22 stations at 20 sites. In 1989, 13 sites were instrumented. A variety of sensors were employed to calculate the fluxes of mass and energy. An effort was made throughout the FIFE campaign to compare sensors. A series of papers in this special issue present these group studies and efforts. These papers principally report the 1987 campaign, although two papers report station intercomparison during 1989. Additional papers examine the time-space variability of heat, moisture, and momentum fluxes, as well as analyses of the properties of the CO2 fluxes and their relationships to water stress. -from Authors
