BOREAS 1995 HYD-09 Tipping Bucket Rain Data
The BOREAS HYD-09 team collected several data sets containing precipitation and streamflow measurements over the BOREAS study areas. This data set contains the measurements from the tipping bucket rain gauges at the BOREAS NSA and SSA. These measurements were submitted in 15-minute and 1-hour intervals. Only the 15-minute interval data set was loaded into the data base tables. Data were collected from the tipping bucket gauges from mid-April until mid-October in 1994, 1995, and 1996.
BOREAS TE-10 Leaf Optical Properties for SSA Species
The BOREAS TE-10 team collected several data sets in support of its efforts to characterize and interpret information on the reflectance, transmittance, gas exchange, oxygen evolution, and biochemical properties of boreal vegetation. This data set describes the spectral optical properties (reflectance and transmittance) of boreal forest conifers and broadleaf tree leaves as measured with a Spectron Engineering SE590 spectroradiometer at the SSA OBS, OJP, YJP, OA, OA-AUX, YA-AUX, and YA sites. The data were collected during the growing seasons of 1994 and 1996.
BOREAS DEM Data over the NSA-MSA and SSA-MSA in AEAC Projection
These data were derived from the original DEMs produced by the BOREAS HYD-08 team. The original DEMs were in the UTM projection, while this product is projected in the AEAC projection (see Section 7 for further projection details). The pixel size of the data is 100 meters, which is appropriate for the 1:50,000- scale contours from which the DEMs were made. The original data were compiled from information available in the 1970s and 1980s. This data set covers the two MSAs that are contained within the SSA and the NSA.
BOREAS TE-09 in Situ Diurnal Gas Exchange of NSA Boreal Forest Stands
The gas exchange data of the Boreal Ecosystem-Atmosphere Study (BOREAS) Northern Study Area (NSA) were collected to characterize diurnal gas exchange and water potential of two canopy levels of five boreal canopy cover types: young and old jack pine (Pinus banksiana Lamb.), old aspen (Populus tremuloides Michx.), and lowland and upland black spruce (Picea mariana (Mill) B.S.P.). These data were collected between 27-May-1994 and 17-Sep-1994. The purpose of this study was threefold: 1) to provide in situ gas exchange data that will be used to validate models of photosynthetic responses to light, temperature, and carbon dioxide (CO2); 2) to compare the photosynthetic responses of different tree crown levels (upper and lower), and 3) to characterize the diurnal water potential curves for these sites to get an indication of the extent to which soil moisture supply to leaves might be limiting photosynthesis.
BOREAS Level-2 MAS Surface Reflectance and Temperature Images in BSQ Format
The BOREAS Staff Science Aircraft Data Acquisition Program focused on providing the research teams with the remotely sensed aircraft data products they needed to compare and spatially extend point results. The MAS images, along with other remotely sensed data, were collected to provide spatially extensive information over the primary study areas. This information includes biophysical parameter maps such as surface reflectance and temperature. Collection of the MAS images occurred over the study areas during the 1994 field campaigns. The level-2 MAS data cover the dates of 21-Jul-1994, 24-Jul-1994, 04-Aug-1994 and 08-Aug-1994. The data are not geographically/geometrically corrected; however, files of relative X and Y coordinates for each image pixel were derived by using the C130 navigation data in a MAS scan model. The data are provided in binary image format files.
BOREAS/AES MARS-II 15-minute Surface Meteorological Data: 1994
Canadian AES personnel collected several data sets related to surface and atmospheric meteorological conditions over the BOREAS region. This data set contains 15-minute meteorological data from six MARSII meteorology stations in the BOREAS region in Canada. Parameters include site, time, temperature, dewpoint, visibility, wind speed, wind gust, wind direction, two cloud groups, precipitation, and station pressure. Temporarily, the data cover the period of May to September 1994. Geographically, the stations are spread across the provinces of Saskatchewan and Manitoba.
BOREAS TE-01 Soils Data over the SSA Tower Sites in Raster Format
This data set was gridded from vector layers of soil maps that were received from Dr. Darwin Anderson TE-01 who did the original soil mapping in the field during 1994. The vector layers were gridded into raster files that cover approximately 1 square kilometer over each of the tower sites in the SSA.
BOREAS TF-11 SSA Fen 1996 Water Surface Film Capping Data
The BOREAS TF-11 team gathered a variety of data to complement their tower flux measurements collected at the SSA Fen site. The data described in this document were made by the TF-11 team at the SSA Fen site to quantify the effect that the films observed to form on open water surfaces had on the transfer of carbon dioxide and methane from the water to the air. Measurements of fluxes of carbon dioxide and methane were made in 1994 and in 1996 using the chamber flux method. A gas chromatograph and a LI-COR LI-6200 were used to measure concentrations and to calculate the fluxes.
BOREAS Follow-On FLX-01 NSA-OBS Tower Flux, Meteorological, and Soil Temp. Data
The BOREAS Follow-On FLX-01 team collected tower flux, surface meteorological, and soil temperature data at the BOREAS NSA-OBS site continuously from March 1994 through December 1998. Data from March 1994 through October 1996 are included in the BOREAS TF-03 effort while data from the end of October 1996 through December 1998 are included in the BOREAS Follow-on FLX-01 effort.
BOREAS HYD-08 1994 Gravimetric Moss Moisture Data
The BOREAS HYD-08 team made measurements of surface hydrological processes that were collected at the NSA OBS Tower Flux site in 1994 and at Joey Lake, Manitoba, to support their research into point hydrological processes and the spatial variation of these processes. The data collected may be useful in characterizing canopy interception, drip, throughfall, moss interception, drainage, evaporation, and capacity during the growing season at daily temporal resolution. This particular data set contains the gravimetric moss moisture measurements from June to September 1994. A nested spatial sampling plan was implemented to support research into spatial variations of the measured hydrological processes and ultimately the impact of these variations on modeled carbon and water budgets.
BOREAS TE-18 Biomass Density Image of the SSA
This biomass density image covers almost the entire BOREAS SSA. The pixels for which biomass density is computed include areas that are in conifer land cover classes only. The biomass density values represent the amount of overstory biomass (i.e. tree biomass only) per unit area. It is derived from a Landsat-5 TM image collected on 02-Sep-1994. The technique that was used to create this image is very similar to the technique that was used to create the physical classification of the SSA. The data are provided in a binary image file format. Companion files include (1) an image inventory listing to inform users of the images that are available and (2) example thumbnail images.
BOREAS TF-11 CO2 and CH4 Flux Data from the SSA-Fen
The BOREAS TF-11 team collected several data sets in their efforts to fully describe the flux and site characteristics at the SSA-Fen site. This data set contains fluxes of methane and carbon dioxide at the SSA fen site measured using static chambers. The measurements were conducted as part of a 2x2 factorial experiment in which we added carbon (300 g m-2 as wheat straw) and nitrogen (6 g m-2 as urea) to four replicate locations in the vicinity of the TF-11 tower. In addition to siting and treatment variables, it reports air temperature and water table height relative to the average peat surface during each measurement. The data set covers the period from the first week of June 1994 through the second week of September, 1994.
BOREAS TGB-12 Soil Carbon Site Information
During 1993 and 1994, the BOReal Ecosystem-Atmosphere Study (BOREAS) Trace Gas and Biogeochemistry team #12 (TGB-12) collected several data sets to support their analysis of soil carbon content in the Northern Study Area (NSA). The primary data set (BOREAS TGB-12 Soil Carbon Data over the NSA) is described in some detail. Other ancillary information was stored and provided in two sets of soil pit description and surface vegetation transect files. In addition, a site description file provides more information on the positioning of the sampling sites. These files contain additional information that complements the data contained in the primary data set.
BOREAS 1996 HYD-09 Tipping Bucket Rain Data
The BOREAS HYD-09 team collected several data sets containing precipitation and streamflow measurements over the BOREAS study areas. This data set contains the measurements from the tipping bucket rain gauges at the BOREAS NSA and SSA. These measurements were submitted in 15-minute and 1-hour intervals. Only the 15-minute interval data set was loaded into the data base tables. Data were collected from the tipping bucket gauges from mid-April until mid-October in 1994, 1995, and 1996.
BOREAS TE-06 NPP for the Tower Flux, Carbon Evaluation, and Auxiliary Sites
The BOREAS TE-06 team collected several data sets to examine the influence of vegetation, climate, and their interactions on the major carbon fluxes for boreal forest species. This data set contains estimates of the biomass produced by the plant species at the TF, CEV, and AUX sites in the SSA and NSA for a given year. Temporally, the data cover the years of 1985 to 1995. The plant biomass production (i.e., aboveground, belowground, understory, litterfall), spatial coverage, and temporal nature of measurements varied between the TF, CEV, and AUX sites as deemed necessary by BOREAS principal investigators.
BOREAS Level-0 AOCI Imagery: Digital Counts in BIL Format
The level-0 AOCI imagery, along with the other remotely sensed images, was collected to provide spatially extensive information about radiant energy over the primary BOREAS study areas. The AOCI was the only remote sensing instrument flown with wavelength bands specific to the investigation of various aquatic parameters such as chlorophyll content and turbidity. Only one flight of the AOCI instrument was made onboard the ER-2 aircraft on 21-Jul-1994 over the SSA. Companion files include (1) an image inventory listing to inform users of the images that are available and (2) example thumbnail images that may be viewed and the image data files downloaded using a convenient viewer utility.
BOREAS ER2 Aircraft Flight Logs
During 1994 and 1996, digital and analog imaging instruments mounted on the NASA ER2 aircraft collected various remotely sensed data from the atmosphere and earth?s surface as part of the BOReal Ecosystem-Atmosphere Study (BOREAS) Intensive Field Campaigns (IFC). Personnel from the NASA Earth Resources Aircraft Program within the High-altitude Aircraft Branch at NASA Ames Research Center (ARC) compiled and published logs that document the BOREAS ER2 missions. These are standard flight reports that the ARC personnel produced routinely during their tenure.
BOREAS Follow-On DSP-10 Regridded Land Cover Maps for 1994
These images were produced by aggregating the 1-km land cover classification by Lou Steyaert at multiple resolutions (2 km, 10x5 minutes, and 0.5 degree). These data were regridded for use by the BOREAS Follow-on Carbon and Hydro-Meteorological modeling groups to have a number of data sets available in common grid projections and scales for intercomparison studies. Characteristics of the individual products are described in the data set guide document.
BOREAS TE-09 in situ Understory Spectral Reflectance within the NSA
Spectral reflectance of the forest understory at the ground level, in three boreal forest sites of Northern Manitoba (56 degrees N latitude and 98 degrees W longitude), were obtained and analyzed. The objective of the study was to estimate light levels inside the forest canopy and to link these estimates with airborne images taken above the canopy, in order to tie the photosynthetic experiments and models with the remotely sensed measurements. The Boreal Ecosystem-Atmospheric Study (BOREAS) Terrestrial Ecosystem (TE)-09 project contained several sub-projects designed to work together to meet this goal: a high-resolution canopy modeling component, extensive measurements of canopy architecture and structure, photometric measurements inside the canopy, and spectral measurements of both the canopy and the understory.
BOREAS TGB-01 CH4 Concentration and Flux Data from NSA Tower Sites
The BOREAS TGB-01 team made numerous measurements of trace gas concentrations and fluxes at various NSA sites. This data set contains half-hourly averages of ambient methane (CH4) measurements and calculated fluxes for the NSA-TF in 1996 and the NSA-BP and NSA-OJP tower sites in 1994. The purpose of this study was to determine the CH4 flux from the study area by measuring ambient CH4 concentrations. This flux can then be compared to the chamber flux measurements taken at the same sites.
