Transferring information across scales  The upscaling problem and data assimilation  An Arctic C cycle application  REFLEX – a comparison of DA approaches for C flux estimation

Upscaling C fluxes  How do we cope with spatial variation?  What are the critical feedbacks over longer time scales?  How can model/parameters be improved?  How can multiple data be combined?  How trustworthy are such combinations?
