Diurnal leaf gas exchange survey, Feb2016-May2016, PA-SLZ, PA-PNM: Panama

This data package contains the results of a diurnal leaf gas exchange survey measured on sunlit canopy trees within the NGEE Tropics sites Parque Natural Metropolitano (PA-PNM) and Bosque Protector San Lorenzo (PA-SLZ) in Panama. Measurements were taken on a monthly basis from February to May of 2016. This data was collected as part of the 2016 El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) campaign. Included in this data package are two Excel files with data (2016ENSO_Panama_DiurnalGasEx, 2016ENSO_Panama_AreaCorrections) and additional Excel files with associated metadata. Microsoft Excel or other spreadsheet applications can be used to utilize these files. Also included is a PDF document (Metadata_description_2016_ENSO_Panama) with details such as data collection methods, equipment used, and site information. See related datasets for further sample details, leaf water potential, LMA, leaf spectra, other gas exchange and leaf chemistry. VERSION 2 update. The identification of a species from the PNM site has been corrected as follows: the identification of the tree initially identified as Pseudosamanea guachapele (ALBIED) has been revised to Albizia adinocephala (ALBIAD). The updated data package includes revised data, metadata and protocol documents updated to reflect this change. This dataset was originally published on the NGEE Tropics Archive and is being mirrored on ESS-DIVE for long-term archival Acknowledgement: This research was supported as part of NGEE-Tropics, funded by the U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Science, Office of Biological and Environmental Research under contract no.
