| Summary: | Remote sensing of Solar-Induced Fluorescence (SIF) is a growing and dynamic research field that has the potential to provide innovative tools for monitoring plant status and photosynthetic function and transform global carbon cycle research, especially for large and understudied regions like the ABoVE domain. Utilizing SIF to its full extent requires an understanding of the relationship between SIF and the photosynthetic function of the vegetation present, and how these vary with plant type and environmental conditions. High latitudes have been under-represented in SIF studies to date, but arctic and boreal plants are particularly interesting as they have photosynthetic properties and environmental responses that appear to be different to those described from better-studied temperate vegetation. We will examine the relationship between SIF and vegetation photosynthetic capacity from the plot to landscape level at multiple locations within the ABoVE domain. Measurements will include multi-temporal sampling of ... |
