Plant species composition in ITEX subplots in black sand extended growing season experiment, 2018 - 2023.
As a result of climate change, the Rocky Mountain Front Range is experiencing warmer summers and earlier snowmelt. Due to the importance of snow for regulating soil temperature, growing season length, and available moisture in alpine ecosystems, even small shifts in the snow-free period could have large impacts. The focus of the Black Sand Extended Growing Season Length Experiment is to examine how terrain-related differences in climate exposure influence the way alpine habitats respond to climate change via earlier snowmelt. To simulate how climate exposure may affect plant communities, NWT LTER researchers established 5 experimental sites, each containing a pair 10 x 40m rectangular plots. These sites include north and south facing aspects, subalpine and alpine tundra meadows and a range of hydrological conditions (e.g. dry meadows, moist meadows, wet meadows). We accelerated snowmelt in one plot at each site by adding chemically inert black sand, while keeping the second plot as an unmanipulated control; black sand was added to control plots after snow had naturally melted. We used open top warming chambers (OTCs) to increase summer temperature in three subplots within each of the 10 x 40 m plots. This dataset includes measurements of plant species composition within all snow and warming treatments.

We accelerated snowmelt in one plot of each block by adding chemically inert black sand, while keeping the second plot as an unmanipulated control; black sand was added to these plots after snow had naturally melted. This dataset includes geolocations of individual subplots and sensors within the experiment, measured in summer 2023.
Hobo temperature data from the black sand extended growing season length and ITEX chamber experiment, hourly, 2018 - 2020
Climate warming is accelerating spring snowmelt in Colorado, with pronounced effects in mountain ecosystems. Early snowmelt results in an extended summer that may increase stress for plants, such as water limitation and a higher frequency of frost events. Alternatively, plants that are limited by a short growing season may benefit from longer summers under climate change. To simulate how changes in growing season length and air temperature may affect biotic and abiotic components, we accelerated snowmelt in one plot of each 4 blocks by adding chemically inert black sand, while keeping the second plot as an unmanipulated control (black sand was added to these plots after snow had naturally melted). ITEX warming chambers were added to 3 subplots within each block. This dataset includes measurements of soil surface or subsurface temperature within subplots.

Vegetation indices calculated for ITEX flux plots in 2004-2009 at Toolik, Alaska; Abisko, Sweden; Svalbard, Norway; Zackenberg, Northeast Greenland; and Barrow, Alaska
A spectrophotometer was used to scan the canopy vegetation of ITEX flux plots. The resulting reflectance spectra were used to calculate several vegetation indices of interest (NDVI, EVI, EVI2, PRI, WBI, Chlorophyll Index). Average values of these vegetation indices for each ITEX flux plot are presented here.
