Eryame Shade and Frost

Raw data from a set of experiments assessing the risk of shade and frost to shortening the end of the growing season in Erythronium americanum. The shade study compared senescence dates between shaded and unshaded plants. The freezing experiment compared amount of leaf damage pending a series of exposures to sub-freezing temperature. The field study looked at air and soil temperature relative to leaf damage (or lack thereof).
