Multi-year aboveground data of minirhizotron facilities in Selhausen - DATA

Here, we presented a comprehensive data set collected from leaf to canopy using sophisticated and comprehensive sensing techniques (leaf chlorophyll content, hourly leaf stomatal conductance and photosynthesis, canopy CO2 exchange, sap flow, soil respiration, and canopy temperature) including detailed crop growth characteristics based on destructive methods (seasonal dynamics of crop height, leaf area index, above-ground biomass, and yield). Data were acquired under field conditions with contrasting soil types, water treatments, and different cultivars of wheat and maize together with minirhizotron facilities which collected the belowground processes (root and soil characteristics). The data from 2016 up to now will be made available (together with the below-ground data). The data in this repository correspond to the article "Multi-year aboveground data of minirhizotron facilities in Selhausen.
