On the use of the post-closure methods uncertainty band to evaluate the performance of land surface models against eddy covariance flux data

The energy balance of eddy covariance (EC) flux data is normally not closed. Therefore, at least if used for modelling, EC flux data are usually post-closed, i.e. the measured turbulent fluxes are adjusted so as to close the energy balance. At the current state of knowledge, however, it is not clear...
