Site Name: Barro Colorado Island (BCI); Parque Natural Metropolitano; Bosque Protector San Lorenzo (Fort Sherman)
Variables: Leaf phenology
Date Range: Feb. 13, 2016 - May 24, 2016
Description: This data package contains details of the date, location, species and photographs of leaf samples collected on a monthly basis from Feb to May 2016 from Parque Natural Metropolitano (PA-PNM), Barro Colorado Island (PA-BCI) and Bosque Protector San Lorenzo (PA-SLZ) in Panama. Data from BCI only available for March. This data was collected as part of the 2016 El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) campaign. Included in this data package are an Excel file with data (2016ENSO_Panama_LeafSamples) and two Excel files with associated metadata. Sample photos are included in five zip files, organized by month and site. Also included is a Word document (Metadata_description_2016_ENSO_Panama) with details such as data collection methods, equipment used, and site information. Data to be used as a reference to linking related datasets including leaf water potential, leaf spectra, LMA, gas exchange and leaf chemistry (CHN, NSC). Most leaves were sampled from sunlit canopy trees. VERSION 2 update. The identification of a species from the PNM site has been corrected as follows: the identification of the tree initially identified as Pseudosamanea guachapele (ALBIED) has been revised to Albizia adinocephala (ALBIAD). The updated data package includes revised data, metadata and protocol documents updated to reflect this change.
QA/QC: Full QA-QC
Methods Description: Reference the included document "Metadata_description_2016_ENSO_Panama.docx" for data collection workflow. Data validation included ensuring: sample IDs have correct format and are unique; corresponding photo numbers are correct; species codes are valid; sample numbers cross referenced against gas exchange and other measurements.
