Individual tree and tall shrub partial above-ground biomass of central Chukotka in 2018 ...

Tree and tall shrub above ground biomass (AGB) samples were taken in five areas: a treeless mountainous tundra (16-KP-04; Lake Rauchuagytgyn area), tundra-taiga transition zone (16-KP-01, Lake Ilirney area; 18-BIL-00) and a northern taiga (18-BIL-01, 18-BIL-02). In total, 31 sample plots with 15-m r...

Description
Summary:Tree and tall shrub above ground biomass (AGB) samples were taken in five areas: a treeless mountainous tundra (16-KP-04; Lake Rauchuagytgyn area), tundra-taiga transition zone (16-KP-01, Lake Ilirney area; 18-BIL-00) and a northern taiga (18-BIL-01, 18-BIL-02). In total, 31 sample plots with 15-m radius were investigated for tree and tall shrub AGB. The only present tree species there is Larix cajanderi Mayr. By tall shrubs we mean Pinus pumila (Pall.) Regel, Alnus viridis ssp. fruticosa (Rupr.) Nyman and Salix spp. L.Three living trees (the lowest, a tree with the average height and the highest) per each site were cut down. From each individual tree certain representative samples were taken: samples of branches, needles, cones and tree stem discs. Sampled branches were divided into four categories: 1) big (first order, connected to the stem), 2) medium (second order, connected to the big branches), 3) small (third order, connected to the medium branches), 4) dead (including dead cones). Needles are ...
