Leaf C and N content, Feb2016-May2016, PA-SLZ, PA-PNM, PA-BCI: Panama

This dataset contains carbon, hydrogen and nitrogen content data of 33 tree species collected from February to May 2016 at the NGEE-Tropics Bosque Protector San Lorenzo (PA-SLZ) and Parque Natural Metropolitano (PA-PNM) sites in Panama. Data from Barro Colorado Island (PA-BCI) is only available for March 2016. This data was collected as part of the 2016 ENSO campaign. See related datasets for further sample details, leaf water potential, leaf spectra, gas exchange and leaf mass per area (LMA). Most leaves were sampled from sunlit canopy trees. 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.
