Fine-Root Ecology Database (FRED): A Global Collection of Root Trait Data with Coincident Site, Vegetation, Edaphic, and Climatic Data, Version 1

Dataset Iversen, C. M. ; Powell, A. S. ; McCormack, M. L. ; ...

To address the need for a centralized root trait database, we are compiling the Fine-Root Ecology Database (FRED) from published literature and unpublished data. FRED Version 1 (FRED 1.0) currently houses more than 70,000 observations of root traits and their associated site, vegetation, edaphic, and climatic conditions from across the globe (see image below, which shows the more than 1000 distinct locations associated with observations in FRED 1.0). Data collection is ongoing and will continue for the foreseeable future. The more than 300 root traits currently housed in FRED 1.0 are described in detail here. FRED is focused on finemore »« less
Fine-Root Ecology Database (FRED): A Global Collection of Root Trait Data with Coincident Site, Vegetation, Edaphic, and Climatic Data, Version 3.

Dataset Iversen, CM ; McCormack, ML ; Baer, JK ; ...

To address the need for a centralized root trait database, we compiled the Fine-Root Ecology Database (FRED) from published and unpublished data sources. We have continued to add to the FRED database since the release of FRED 2.0 in 2018, and a new version of FRED is now available. FRED 3.0 has more than 150,000 observations of more than 330 root traits, with data collected from more than 1400 data sources. FRED 3.0 has 45% more root trait observations than FRED 2.0, particularly in the categories of root anatomy, morphology, and microbial associations; ancillary data on associated site, vegetation, edaphic,more »« less
Major World Ecosystem Complexes Ranked by Carbon in Live Vegetation: A Database (NDP-017) (2001 version of original 1985 data)

Dataset Olsen, Jerry S. ; Watts, Julia A. ; Allison, Linda J.

In 1980, this data base and the corresponding map were completed after more than 20 years of field investigations, consultations, and analyses of published literature. They characterize the use and vegetative cover of the Earth's land surface with a 0.5° × 0.5° grid. This world-ecosystem-complex data set and the accompanying map provide a current reference base for interpreting the role of vegetation in the global cycling of CO2 and other gases and a basis for improved estimates of vegetation and soil carbon, of natural exchanges of CO2, and of net historic shifts of carbon between the biosphere and the atmosphere.

NGEE Arctic Plant Traits: Fine Roots, Kougarok Road Mile Marker 64, Seward Peninsula, Alaska, 2016

Dataset Salmon, Verity ; Iversen, Colleen ; Childs, Joanne

Laboratory sample processing of these soils generated depth-specific data on soil properties as well as fine root biomass, length, %C, %N, ?13C, and ?15N. Only live fine roots were analyzed. Fine roots were not separated by species or plant functional type.Soil cores were collected from twelve vegetation biomass plots at the Kougarok hillslope in late July of 2016. The sampled plots were located across six ecotypes present at this site (n=2 replicates per ecotype). Soil cores were separated into depth intervals in the field and frozen for transport to Oak Ridge National Laboratory.The Next-Generation Ecosystem Experiments: Arctic (NGEE Arctic), wasmore »« less
