It is the responsibility of the user to ensure data quality and fitness for publication. When the instruments are properly maintained and conditions are well-suited for open-path EC measurements, most likely the flux results are in their final and usable form, but the user should still verify that the corrections were appropriate for the site and that the data are fit for further use. The raw time-series data are always stored on a CompactFlash card, so a user may reprocess raw data with a post-processing software package.
