The data presented were collected on the second summer of the experiment, in 2000, during summers of 2007 or 2008, 2012, and 2017 for 48 plots (24 experiment open-top chamber plots and 24 control plots) at four sites (Atqasuk Wet Meadow, Atqasuk Dry Heath, Barrow Wet Meadow, and Barrow Dry Heath) and 2014 for 8 plots (4 control and 4 experimental) at two sites (Barrow Dry Heath and Atqasuk Dry Heath).
