Products recommended by from LSP/Flux group 1/2 • 1. Question/Motivation: Because there are common miscommunications in the community, we need to make RS/LSP data products more accessible and understandable to ecological community so that they can take advantage of what currently exists. • a. Product: “outreach” review targeted to inform BioScience or Frontiers audiences about what is possible now and what is still to come (maybe). • b. Affiliated product: Integrated weblist at USA-NPN website of description and links to RS/LSP extant data products. • c. Affiliated product: User-accessible animations of LSP green-wave ebb & flow (mpg, avi, mov) for outreach • Tasked to whom: (a) group effort led by Bethany B; (b) Jeff M.; (c) Jeff M., Bill H., Kirsten d. • 2. Question/Motivation: Exploring beyond SOS to identify better LSP metrics to link with ground obs. • a. Product: Maps of peak timing of NDVI/EVI/WDRVI – use AVHRR, MODIS, Landsat WELD Composites – for several exemplar sites having ground observations of plant phenology & flux sites (Harvard Forest, MA; Howland, ME; Tonzi Ranch, CA; Park Falls, WI; Willow Creek, WI; Mead, NE; Morgan-Monroe, IN; UMBS, MI; Sylvania Wilderness, MI; Santa Rita, AZ; Niwot Ridge, CO; Lost Creek, WI; Bartlett, NH) • b. Affiliated product: PCA/Factor analysis of common pheno-metrics to identify groups of similar behavior, including separate applications to LSP curves vs. Flux curves vs. climate curves, etc. • Tasked to whom:(a) Kirsten d. and Geoff H. & Jeff M. & Feng G. & Asko N. (b) Bill H & Jeff M. & Geoff H. & Asko N. & Julio B.& Bethany B. – but longer term for delivery
Products recommended by from LSP/Flux group 2/2 • 3. Question/Motivation:To provide a geospatial stratification of CONUS to identify regions of comparable phenological behavior from the LSP perspective. • a. Product: Pheno-regionalization of MODIS 2001-2008 a1: static; a2: dynamic; a3: VI trend areas – Seasonal Kendall trend test • b. Affiliated product: Network analysis using Ameriflux, NEON, LTER, Lilac network, and then…Budburst & USA-NPN sites • c. Tasked to whom: (a & b) Bill H. [ for a3. & Kirsten d & Geoff H. ] • 4. Question/Motivation: Need for integration of land product validation perspective to guide future sampling and integration of phenological observations. • a. Product:Paper describing how to implement NPN plant protocols in a geospatial context to facilitate linkage with remote sensing observations. (9 months – after Dublin June 2010 mtg) • b. Tasked to whom: TBD (Jeff M., Bethany B., Mark S., Geoff H.)
