Overview
Vegetation regulates the flow of numerous biogeochemical cycles, most critically those of water, carbon, and nitrogen; it is also of great importance in local and global energy balances. Vegetation collections data include:
- Biomass
- Biome Characteristics
- Litter Chemistry and Decomposition
- Geoecology
- Nutrient Concentration, Profiles, and Turnover
- Global Fire Emissions, Vegetation, and Leaf Area Index (LAI)
- Ecosystem Structure and Function
- Phenoregions
- Carbon Flux
