Sapflow raw and translated data, 2015 - 2017, BR-Ma2: Manaus

This data package contains raw sapflow data from the NGEE Tropics K34 tower site on a plateau near Manaus, Brazil. These are mostly raw data from the data loggers, except in the case of the ICT sensors, where the datalogger output was translated using ICT software. One heat ratio sap flow sensor (SFM1, ICT international) was installed per tree. Tree biophysical characteristics for each tree were used with Sap Flow Tool version 1.4.1 (ICT International/Phyto-IT) to calculate sap velocities from raw data downloaded from the SFM1 sap flow sensors in the field. The attached zip file contains six folders: three for data, one for sensor manuals and data collection protocols in PDF format, one for logger configuration programs, and a final folder for metadata files in Excel format. Related metadata is contained in the referenced dataset. This dataset replaces the sapflow data of two retired packages, http://dx.doi.org/10.15486/ngt/1507764 and http://dx.doi.org/10.15486/ngt/1507767. This dataset was originally published on the NGEE Tropics Archive and is being mirrored on ESS-DIVE for long-term archival Acknowledgement: This material is based upon work supported as part of the Next Generation Ecosystem Experiments-Tropics (NGEE-Tropics) funded by the U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Science, Office of Biological and Environmental Research through contract No. DE-AC02-05CH11231 to LBNL, as part of DOE's Terrestrial Ecosystem Science Program.
