To assess carbon budget for shrub ecosystems on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, CO 2 flux was measured with an open-path eddy covariance system for an alpine shrub ecosystem during growing and non-growing seasons. CO 2 flux dynamics was distinct between the two seasons. During the growing season from May to September, the ecosystem exhibited net CO 2 uptake from 08:00 to 19:00 (Beijing Standard Time), but net CO 2 emission from 19:00 to 08:00. Maximum CO 2 uptake appeared around 12:00 with values of 0.71, 1.19, 1.46 and 0.67 g CO 2 m -2 h -1 for June, July, August and September, respectively. Diurnal fluctuation of CO 2 flux showed higher correlation with photosynthetic photon flux density than temperature. The maximum net CO 2 influx occurred in August with a value of 247 g CO 2 m -2 . The total CO 2 uptake by the ecosystem was up to 583 g CO 2 m -2 for the growing season. During the non-growing season from January to April and from October to December, CO 2 flux showed small fluctuation with the largest net CO 2 efflux of 0.30 g CO 2 m -2 h -1 in April. The diurnal CO 2 flux was close to zero during most time of the day, but showed a small net CO 2 efflux from 11:00 to 18:00. Diurnal CO 2 flux, is significantly correlated to diurnal temperature in the non-growing season. The maximum monthly net CO 2 efflux appeared in April, with a value of 105 g CO 2 m -2 . The total net CO 2 efflux for the whole non-growing season was 356 g CO 2 m -2 .
