Green alder ecophysiological data and shrub patch environmental data, Trail Valley Creek, NT
At a low Arctic tundra site (Trail Valley Creek) near Inuvik, Northwest Territories, we measured stem sap flow, stem water potential, and productivity-related functional traits of green alder (Alnus alnobetula) and environmental predictors (water and nutrient availability and seasonal thaw depth) ac...
