Title: Leaf-to-canopy spectral reflectance, February 2018, PA-SLZ: Panama

Abstract

Canopy reflectance spectra of 37 trees were measured at the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute (STRI) San Lorenzo Protected Area site (PA-SLZ), utilising the canopy access crane to access fully sunlit leaves. Data were recorded in the middle of the day, with 20–50 measurements for each tree. The canopy structure for each crown was captured using a digital camera. Leaf-level reflectance and leaf demographic composition (age class) was recorded in detail for a > 0.5 meter branch sampled from each canopy tree (corresponding to the position where canopy spectra were measured). This dataset includes processed canopy and leaf-level spectral measurements (*.xlsx), raw spectral data (Spectral Evolution PSR+, *.raw, *.sed), sample details (*.xlsx) and *.pdf summaries containing low resolution photographs of the measured canopies. Full resolution images are available in the related dataset, "Leaf-to-canopy spectral reflectance photographs, February 2018, PA-SLZ: Panama".
