Title: NGEE Arctic Leaf Spectral Reflectance, Utqiagvik (Barrow), Alaska 2013

Abstract

Measurements of full-spectrum (i.e. 350-2500nm) leaf spectral reflectance of 9 Arctic plant species within the BEO, Barrow, Alaska. Spectra were collected using an ASD Field Spec 3 full range spectroradiometer with a leaf clip assembly attached to a plant probe with an internally calibrated light source. Data were collected in July 2013, and sample LMA, N content and chlorophyll content are available in related datasets. Species measured - Arctophila fulva, Arctagrostis latifolia, Carex aquatilis, Dupontia fisheri, Eriophorum angustifolium, Petasites frigidus, Salix pulchra, Vaccinium vitis-idaea, and Saxifraga punctata. Samples collected in vegetation plots and outside vegetation plots over an area of approximate 1 km2 centered at 71.275 degrees N, 156.641 degrees W. This dataset contains one pdf file, one xlsx file, and one csv file.  The Next-Generation Ecosystem Experiments: Arctic (NGEE Arctic), was a research effort to reduce uncertainty in Earth System Models by developing a predictive understanding of carbon-rich Arctic ecosystems and feedbacks to climate. NGEE Arctic was supported by the Department of Energy's Office of Biological and Environmental Research.The NGEE Arctic project had two field research sites: 1) located within the Arctic polygonal tundra coastal region on the Barrow Environmental Observatory (BEO) and the North Slope near Utqiagvik (Barrow),more » Alaska and 2) multiple areas on the discontinuous permafrost region of the Seward Peninsula north of Nome, Alaska.Through observations, experiments, and synthesis with existing datasets, NGEE Arctic provided an enhanced knowledge base for multi-scale modeling and contributed to improved process representation at global pan-Arctic scales within the Department of Energy's Earth system Model (the Energy Exascale Earth System Model, or E3SM), and specifically within the E3SM Land Model component (ELM).« less
