Free water metabolism (FWM) derived net ecosystem production (NEP) from lagoon sites along the Beaufort Sea Coast, Alaska, 2019-ongoing
Continuous measurements of dissolved oxygen (DO) in order to calculate daily values of free water metabolism (FWM) derived net ecosystem production (NEP) at several core Beaufort Lagoon Ecosystems LTER (BLE-LTER) stations. These deployments were done in addition to year-round core program BLE-LTER mooring deployments during the under ice sampling at surface and bottom depths (April/May), and during open water season in bottom depths (July/August). Gross primary production (GPP), ecosystem respiration (ER), and the sum of the two: net ecosystem production (NEP) are reported in mol C m-2 day-1.
Extreme Drought in Grassland Ecosystems (EDGE) Net Primary Production Quadrat Data at the Sevilleta National Wildlife Refuge, New Mexico
EDGE is located at six grassland sites that encompass a range of ecosystems in the Central US - from desert grasslands to short-, mixed-, and tallgrass prairie. We envision EDGE as a research platform that will not only advance our understanding of patterns and mechanisms of ecosystem sensitivity to climate change, but also will benefit the broader scientific community. Identical infrastructure for manipulating growing season precipitation will be deployed at all sites. Within the relatively large treatment plots (36 m2), we will measure with comparable methods, a broad spectrum of ecological responses particularly related to the interaction between carbon fluxes (NPP, soil respiration) and species response traits, as well as environmental parameters that are critical for the integrated experiment-modeling framework, as well as for site-based analyses. By designing EDGE as a research platform open to the broader scientific community, with subplots in all replicates (n = 180 plots) set-aside for additional studies, and by making data available to the broader ecological community EDGE will have value beyond what we envision here.
Net primary production (NPP) and climate data from Sevilleta LTER core and control sites in desert grassland and shrubland ecosystems, 1999 - 2017
This dataset and R code were used to create the figures, tables and statistical analyses for the following publication: Rudgers, JA et al. 2018. Climate sensitivity functions and net primary production: A framework for incorporating climate mean and variability. Ecology. Data were collected by the Sevilleta LTER program, which is located in the Sevilleta National Wildlife Refuge (SNWR), New Mexico. These are long-term, continuing data sets. Data collection started in 1999 at the black grama grassland and creosote shrubland, and in 2002 for blue grama grassland. Meteorological stations started recording data as early as 1989. The study abstract from Rudgers et al. 2018 is: Understanding controls on net primary production (NPP) has been a long-standing goal in ecology. Climate is a well-known control on NPP, although the temporal differences among years within a site are often weaker than the spatial pattern of differences across sites. Climate sensitivity functions describe the relationship between an ecological response (e.g., NPP) and both the mean and variance of its climate driver (e.g., aridity index), providing a novel framework for understanding how climate trends in both mean and variance vary with NPP over time. Nonlinearities in these functions predict whether an increase in climate variance will have a positive effect (convex nonlinearity) or negative effect (concave nonlinearity) on NPP. The influence of climate variance may be particularly intense at ecosystem transition zones, if species reach physiological thresholds that create nonlinearities at these ecotones. Long-term data collected at the confluence of three dryland ecosystems in central New Mexico revealed that each ecosystem exhibited a unique climate sensitivity function that was consistent with long-term vegetation change occurring at their ecotones. Our analysis suggests that rising temperatures in drylands could alter the nonlinearities that determine the relative costs and benefits of varia

SGS-LTER Effects of grazing on ecosystem structure and function (GZTX): Net Primary Production on the Central Plains Experimental Range, Nunn, Colorado, USA 1992-2011, ARS Study Number 32
This data package was produced by researchers working on the Shortgrass Steppe Long Term Ecological Research (SGS-LTER) Project, administered at Colorado State University. Long-term datasets and background information (proposals, reports, photographs, etc.) on the SGS-LTER project are contained in a comprehensive project collection within the Digital Collections of Colorado (http://digitool.library.colostate.edu/R/?func=collections&collection_id=3429). The data table and associated metadata document, which is generated in Ecological Metadata Language, may be available through other repositories serving the ecological research community and represent components of the larger SGS-LTER project collection. When the CPER was established in 1939, researchers constructed a .5-1 ha grazing exclosure in each of the pastures. These areas have remained protected from grazing for the past 70 years. The remaining areas have been grazed for the past 20+ years. This collection of pastures and exclosures provided an extraordinary opportunity to reinitiate grazing and protection, and evaluate the balance between degradation and aggradation. We proposed to rearrange fences and expose areas to grazing that have been protected for 50 years, and protect areas from grazing that had been grazed for 50 years. The combinations of grazing conditions were: 1. Long-term protection 2. Long-term grazing (moderate) 3. 50 years of protection followed by grazing 4. 50 years of grazing followed by protection Net primary production, nitrogen dynamics, cattle utilization, and community dynamics of vegetation were measured.

Upscaling Tower-Based Net Ecosystem Productivity to global 250m using the Data Augmentation Method by Considering their Spatial Distribution
<p>Terrestrial ecosystems have emerged as critical carbon sinks, holding a crucial role in the carbon cycle. Net ecosystem productivity (NEP) is a highly significant parameter in terrestrial ecosystems, representing the net ecosystem exchange (NEE) between ecosystems and the atmosphere, without considering other carbon fluxes from disturbances. In this NEP product, we harmonized various sets of tower-based NEP from flux sites as target variable, remote sensing product and meteorological data as traning variables. We further optimizied these smaple sets to address the problems in spatial distribution, culminating in a global NEP product spanning the years 2001-2022, achieved through the application of the random forest method. This dataset contains NEP data for global terrestrial ecosystems for the period 2001-2022 in MgC with a temporal resolution of 1 year. The spatial resolution of the product is 250m and the data format is TIFF.</p> <p><strong>For detailed instructions on how to use the dataset, see User Guides.doc!</strong></p>

EJPSOIL_SERENA: Net Ecosystem Productivity of Peipsiääre municipality, Estonia
<p>The internal EJP SOIL project SERENA contributed to the evaluation of soil multifunctionality aiming at providing assessment tools for land planning and soil policies at different scales. By co-working with relevant stakeholders, the project provided co-developed indicators and associated cookbooks to assess and map them, to report both on soil degradation, soil-based ecosystem services and their bundles, under actual conditions and for climate and land-use changes, at the regional, national, and European scales. </p> <p>This dataset is based on the evaluation of Net Ecosystem Productivity (NEP), a critical measure of carbon dynamics and ecosystem health reflecting the balance between gross primary productivity and total ecosystem respiration. Data were gathered for the SERENA GHG Cookbook application and include: Gross Primary Productivity (GPP) data from the 2014 MODIS dataset accessed via MODISTools in R, daily soil moisture data from Zhang et al. (2023), climate data comprising maximum and minimum monthly temperatures for 2014 from World Climate datasets, cropland data filtered for wheat from 2018 obtained from Sentinel-1 and LUCAS observations, and municipal boundaries sourced as vector data from the Republic of Estonia Land Board's Geoportal. </p> <p>The analysis focuses on NEP in the Peipsiääre municipality under North European pedo-climatic conditions during the active growing season. The dataset comprises two files: one representing the 8-day NEP in wheat fields of the Peipsiääre municipality (measured in gC m-2 for an 8-day period) and the other indicating the NEP in wheat fields during May (measured in gC m-2 during May). These files are titled SERENA_EJPSOIL_EE_GHG Cookbook_NEP_April8days_wheat_yields and SERENA_EJPSOIL_EE_GHG Cookbook_NEP_May_wheat_yield, respectively, and are both formatted in GPKG.</p> <p> </p>
