Abstract

Basal area data are available for 1997 through 2006. The number of timestrees were measured each year varies from six to nine, and the header record in each annual file gives dates when the basal area values were recorded. The files include data for 5 plots (rings) on the FACE site.

ORNL FACE Leaf Area Index (LAI)

Dataset Norby, R.J. ; Tharp, M.L.

Leaf area data are available for 1999-2006. There is a daily file for each year which contains the leaf area index values (m2/m2).Leaf area index (LAI, total one-sided leaf area above a unit of ground area)was calculated for each plot for every day of the growing season.Leaf area production in the spring was calculated from the fractionaltransmittance of PAR (T), which was calculated from daily total PAR aboveand below the canopy. A curve was fit to ln(T)/-k data, wherethe extinction coefficient k was set such that maximum leaf areaproduction at budset (early to mid July) was equal to that determinedfrommore »« less
ORNL FACE Tree Height, with data on height of a subset of trees measured every year, 1997-2009. Free-Air CO2 Enrichment (FACE) Experiment Synthesis Activities.

Dataset Norby, Richard

Height of 20 sweetgum trees in three rows of each of the plots in the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) free-air CO2 enrichment (FACE) experiment was measured each year of the experiment (1997-2009). The trees were exposed to ambient or elevated CO2. Tree height data contribute to the overall project objectives to determine the integrated response of a deciduous forest to elevated CO2. Average tree height per plot was used in allometric equations to calculate tree dry mass each year and to test whether there were effects of elevated CO2 on canopy development. Height was derived from trigonometric calculation frommore »« less
ORNL FACE Weather Data

Dataset Riggs, J.S ; Tharp, M.L. ; Norby, R.J.

Weather data are available for 1999-2007. There is an hourly (*wh*) and a daily (*wd*) file for each of the six plots (rings) on the FACE site, giving a total of 12 files for each year. The 2007 files will be updated as data become available. Daily statistics were calculated only for those variables with at least 12 good hourly values, and the calculation of daily statistics for the variables, PAR2m, PAR22m, and PYRAN, required 12 good daylight hours. Otherwise, the daily values were set to missing.
ORNL FACE CO2 Concentration Data

Dataset Riggs, J.S ; Tharp, M.L. ; Norby, R.J.

CO2 concentration data are available for 1999-2006. There is an hourly file for each year which contains elevated and ambient CO2 concentrations. The 2007 file will be updated as data become available. These data files include FACE site measurements of CO2 concentrationsfor rings 1, 2, 4, and 5. Rings 1 and 2 are elevated CO2 concentrations, and rings 4 and 5 are ambient CO2 concentrations. CO2 is sampled continuously from the top of the canopy at the center of eachring and is measured with a LiCor 6252 infrared gas analyzer located in an instrument shed next to each ring.

ORNL FACE Nitrogen Concentrations (Leaves, Litter, Fine Roots, Wood)

Dataset Norby, R.J. ; Iverson, C.M. ; Tharp, M.L.

This report documents the file, Nconc.dat, which contains the nitrogen concentration data for leaves, litter, fine roots, and wood for 1998-2006. These data were collected for rings 1 and 2 which are exposed to elevated CO2 and rings 3-5 which have ambient CO2.The 2005 and 2006 nitrogen concentrations for fine roots will be included when they become available. The N concentration in leaves could not bemeasured in ring 5 in 2006; an estimated value based on N concentration in litter and an average resorption efficiency is 1.073%.Additional information describing this dataset can be found in Norby, R.J. and C.M.
