Project: LBA

Project: LBA
The Large-Scale Biosphere-Atmosphere Experiment in Amazonia (LBA) is an intensive scientific investigation of the tropical rainforest of Brazil and portions of adjacent countries. Like FIFE and BOREAS, this project uses intensive remote-sensing techniques and ground-based experiments to investigate the atmosphere-biosphere-hydrosphere dynamics of this large tropical region. The LBA Project encompasses several scientific disciplines, or components. The LBA-ECO component focuses on the question: "How do tropical forest conversion, regrowth, and selective logging influence carbon storage, nutrient dynamics, trace gas fluxes, and the prospect for sustainable land use in Amazonia?"

Data Set: LBA-ECO LC-23 VEGETATION FIRE DATA, RORAIMA , BRAZIL: 2003
This data set contains ASTER sensor Level-1B satellite imagery over controlled burns in the State of Roraima in Northern Brazil on January 19 and 28, 2003, plus simultaneously collected soil and near-surface air temperature profiles on January 28th. The ASTER imagery is provided in 14 zipped files containing HDF-EOS files (*.hdf and *.met file pairs), while the sample-based temperature profiles, one for the air the other for the ground, are provided as comma separated ASCII files.
