The UWG meets once per year to review the status of ORNL DAAC operations and to provide recommendations.
Christine Laney, Isaac Larsen, Alexey Shiklomanov, and Ying Sun have joined the ORNL DAAC User Working Group.
Example of color-infrared imagery shown alongside the corresponding semi-automated open water classification at Old Crow Flats, Alaska.
Over 3,000 km2 of open surface water were mapped from AirSWOT flight lines made in Summer 2017 for the Arctic-Boreal Vulnerability Experiment (ABoVE).
Mean gross primary productivity (GPP) for the conterminous US and North America in grams of carbon per unit area per month.
Carbon fluxes and uncertainties are available from the Atmospheric Carbon and Transport - America (ACT-America) project.
A typical burned plot in the Saskatchewan, Canada, boreal forest study area.
Fire history and field measurements were used to estimate above- and belowground carbon values.
(A) A Soil Respiration Station (SRS), (B) a SRS data logger, and (C) a Forced Diffusion Chamber (FD chamber) deployed at a boreal forest site in central Alaska.
Data collected by soil respiration stations installed at boreal and tundra sites are available from the Arctic-Boreal Vulnerability Experiment (ABoVE).
Study area included sites burned in 2014 and 2015 in the southeastern portion of the Northwest Territories and northern Alberta of Canada. The study area includes all 2014 and 2015 fires within a radius of approximately 300 km from Great Slave Lake.
Pre- and post-fire Landsat images were used to classify burn severity of soil organic matter across portions of arctic Canada.
Biomass (Mg ha-1) for the northern Minnesota site.
Six Landsat focus sites were used to produce disturbance history and forest biomass maps.
Map of study area communities. GMUs are Game Management Units and GMU21D is highlighted.
Environmental conditions during moose hunting season for 2000-2016 are available for rural Alaska.
