Nitrogen and carbon content, leaf mass per area and leaf water content of leaves sampled from the NGEE Arctic Teller study site, Seward Peninsula, Alaska in 2017. Data is included for 13 species from the deciduous shrub, forb and graminoid plant functional types. See related dataset for leaf reflective spectra, sample photographs and dGPS locations. This data package includes leaf sample information and trait data (*.csv). Note that leaf nitrogen content analysis was performed on a subset of samples. Metadata files include data descriptions (_dd.csv) for tabular data and a key to species symbols used in data files. All included files are listed and described in NGA103_flmd.csv. The Next-Generation Ecosystem Experiments: Arctic (NGEE Arctic), was a research effort to reduce uncertainty in Earth System Models by developing a predictive understanding of carbon-rich Arctic ecosystems and feedbacks to climate. NGEE Arctic was supported by the Department of Energy's Office of Biological and Environmental Research. ...
