Diurnal leaf water potential on four tree species, San Lorenzo, Panama, 2020

This data package contains pre-dawn and diurnal leaf water potential (LWP) measured on four trees at the STRI San Lorenzo crane site between January and March 2020. These data were collected from four of the core trees instrumented for sap flux (Guatteria dumetorum, Miconia minutiflora, Terminalia amazonia,Vochysia ferruginea), with measurements made on a single tree on each day. For each tree, leaf samples were harvested from fully sunlit, top of canopy positions pre-dawn (06:00 local time), and then hourly for the subsequent 12 hours. Leaf water potential was measured on 6 - 10 leaves from each time point. Harvested leaves were stored in a cool humid bag in the dark for no more than 40 minutes before LWP was measured. These data were collected as part of a 2020 dry season campaign led by Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL). Refer to related datasets for further sample details, and paired leaf mass area (LMA), survey gas exchange, and leaf chemistry data. The files included in this data package are in .csv format, and include one data file and three metadata files.

Leaf reflectance, leaf transmittance and sky irradiance, at four sites in Panama, 2022

Paired leaf reflectance and transmittance data measured in Panama, at the Parque Natural Metropolitano (PNM), on Barro Colorado Island (BCI), at the San Lorenzo canopy crane site (SLZ), and in Gamboa, Panama from January to April 2022. Measurements were made on leaves from 57 different tree, shrub and liana species, from sunlit canopy and understory locations. Bark reflectance was also measured on the trunks of common tree species at the PNM and SLZ sites. Also included are irradiance measurements and leaf area index (LAI) from eight vertical profiles at PNM. The aim of these data was to refine our understanding of vertical trait and environmental variation in tropical forests, and to improve models which can predict leaf traits from leaf contact spectral measurements. All spectral data and metadata are presented in .csv files and complete instrument output are included in .zip folders. Protocol details are provided as pdf documents. In addition to spectral data described here, some of these samples were also used for measurement of leaf gas exchange, carbon and nitrogen content, and leaf mass per unit leaf area (LMA) these data can be cross linked using the unique sample ID and are provided in separate related data packages.

Panama leaf water potential census 2015-2019

This dataset contains values of leaf water potential from a monthly census of predawn and midday measurements conducted on nine trees in each of two sites in Panama from December 2015 to July 2019. The dataset includes individual measurements that were made with a pressure chamber. The measurements were made on the focal trees to complement concurrent measurements of sap flow. The trees were also intensively measured for leaf-level physiological condition during the 2016 ENSO campaign conducted by NGEE-tropics. A subset of measurements was made on leaves that were sealed in plastic bags and protected from solar radiation before they were collected, such that the measurements assessed branch water potential. The dataset contains a csv file that has columns for the time, location, and value of each measurement. The dataset also contains a metadata file, column description file, and an E-Field log file in the recommended NGEE-Tropic formats.
