Abstract

This dataset provides vegetation survey data collected across vegetation community plots within the 10 chambered treatment plots (6, 19, 11, 20, 4, 13, 8, 16, 10, 17) and 3 unchambered ambient plots (7, 14, 21) of the SPRUCE experiment project in 2014-2018. The vegetation community plots, three in each experimental plot, were established in 2014 and designated to be undisturbed and reserved for long-term sampling. Vegetation survey data were collected at the peak of each growing season by placing a 1x2 meter rectangular grid over each community plot. The 1x2 meter grid is subset into 50 20x20 cm grid cells. Observations are of the presence of each species in each grid cell for each subplot. That’s a total of 39 subplots across the 13 experimental plots. Beginning in 2018, shrub stem density was counted and percent shrub cover was estimated in five selected grid cells in each vegetation community plot. Also included are photographs of each community plot taken at the time of data collection for each measurement year. All measurements were made at the 8.1-ha S1 bog forest site in northern Minnesota, 40 km north of Grand Rapids, in the USDA Forest Service Marcell Experimental Forest (MEF).

SPRUCE Vegetation Phenology in Experimental Plots from Phenocam Imagery, 2015-2018

Dataset Schädel, C. ; Richardson, A.D. ; Hufkens, K. ; ...

The most recent version of these data are available https://doi.org/10.25581/spruce.100/1874948 and supersedes all previous versions. This dataset consists of PhenoCam data from the SPRUCE experiment from the beginning of whole ecosystem warming in August 2015 through March-31 of 2019, with start- and end-of-season phenological transition dates derived through the end of autumn 2018. Digital cameras, or phenocams, installed in each SPRUCE enclosure track seasonal variation in vegetation “greenness”, a proxy for vegetation phenology and associated physiological activity. Three separate regions of interest (ROIs) were defined for each camera field of view, corresponding to different vegetation types and demarcating: Picea treesmore »« less
SPRUCE: Hyperspectral Remote Sensing of Vegetation Communities in SPRUCE Experimental Plots, 2016

Dataset McPartland, Mara Y. ; Falkowski, Michael J. ; Reinhardt, Jason R. ; ...

This data set consists of reflectance observations from hyperspectral remote sensing of the vegetation communities in SPRUCE experimental study plots located in the S1-Bog. Community vegetation plots in ten chambered treatment plots (6, 19, 11, 20, 4, 13, 8, 16, 10, 17) and 3 unchambered ambient plots (7, 14, 21) were scanned. Spectral data were collected on 22 September 2016 under clear sky conditions beginning at 1:00 p.m. local time. Although it was past peak growing season, senescence had only just begun at the site, and experimentally warmed plots were still near peak growing conditions.
SPRUCE: NDVI Data from Selected SPRUCE Experimental Plots, 2016-2018

Dataset McPartland, M.Y. ; Kane, E.S. ; Falkowski, M.J., ; ...

This data set consists of observations of Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) collected via stationary sensors positioned 1.5 meter above unobstructed areas of the ground layer. Sensors were installed above undisturbed community composition plots, that are not instrumented or destructively sampled in any way, in six of the ten chambered SPRUCE experimental study plots located in the S1-Bog. Spectral data (630 and 800 nanometers) were collected at 10-minute intervals over a field of view of ~53 cm in diameter beginning May 6, 2016. Data collection ended at a different time for each sensor as batteries discharged – ranging from Januarymore »« less
SPRUCE: LAI Data from SPRUCE Experimental Plots, 2017-2018

Dataset McPartland, M.Y. ; Kane, E.S. ; Falkowski, M.J., ; ...

This data set provides leaf area index (LAI) data collected across vegetation community plots within the 10 chambered treatment plots (6, 19, 11, 20, 4, 13, 8, 16, 10, 17) and 3 unchambered ambient plots (7, 14, 21) of the SPRUCE experiment project in 2017 and 2018. The vegetation community plots were established in 2014 and designated to be undisturbed and reserved for long-term sampling. LAI measurements were collected using a LICOR-LAI 2200 instrument over a standard 1x2 meter rectangular sampling frame with 50 20x20 cm grid cells. LAI was measured above the canopy and below the vegetation at themore »« less
SPRUCE Peat Mercury, Methylmercury and Sulfur Concentrations from Experimental Plot Cores, Beginning in 2014

Dataset Pierce, C.E. ; Psarska, S. ; Brozowski, J. ; ...

This data set reports the results of physical and chemical analyses of peat core samples from the SPRUCE experimental study plots located in the S1-Bog in northern Minnesota, 40 km north of Grand Rapids in the USDA Forest Service Marcell Experimental Forest (MEF). Sample collection and analyses started in June of 2014 and will continue for the duration of the experiment. Core samples are collected annually from all 12 plots to a depth of 200cm in 10cm and 25cm increments. Samples are analyzed for total mercury concentration, methylmercury concentration, percent carbon, percent nitrogen, and percent sulfur.
