This data package contains sap flow data from the NGEE Tropics site in San Lorenzo, Panama (PA-SLZ) from 22 January 2019 to 31 December 2019. Sap flow measurements quantify plant-level transpiration, which varies across spatial and temporal scales. It is a key trait in understanding plant hydraulic functioning. Here sap flow was measured using ‘Granier-type’ thermal dissipation probes. Raw data downloaded from each data logger are in the 'Raw data' folder as CSV files, along with the Campbell data logger programs which can be read when opened with a text editor. The data was processed using the AquaFlux package in R. R code for preparing the data for use in AquaFlux is in the 'R code for pre-processing data folder'; it is saved as a text file that can be copy and pasted into R. The processed data for each data logger is in the 'Processed data' folder as CSV files. Documentation for the Granier sensors and AquaFlux package is in the ‘Manuals’ folder as PDF files.
