Plant and carbon data, snowmelt manipulation experiment, Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory (RMBL), 2023
Description
These data are from a 2023 snowmelt manipulation experiment in Vera Meadow at the Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory. We experimentally advanced the snowmelt date in a montane meadow by approximately 12 days using black shade cloths and assessed the effect on plant and carbon dynamics. We measured net ecosystem exchange, gross primary productivity, and soil respiration using a Li-COR 7500 five times biweekly from June to August, plant community composition using the pin-drop method five times biweekly from June to August, and root biomass nine times using bulk soil cores. Using drone imagery, we measured the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI). This data package is completed.
