Title: NGEE Arctic Tram: Photographs over Low- and High-Centered Polygon Vegetation Communities, Barrow, Alaska, 2014-2017

Abstract

This dataset provides a digital image (*.jpg) of each measurement position stop for every run of the Tram. There may have been multiple Tram runs per day. Images are included for years 2014, 2015, 2016, and 2017. The images for 2014 are described separately from 2015-2017. There was an attempt for more images in 2018 but no good images were collected. Inventories included as *.csv files.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), 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,more » or E3SM), and specifically within the E3SM Land Model component (ELM).« less
