Description

The purpose of these measurements was to determine plot-level average leaf concentrations of nitrogen, lignin, cellulose, etc. in order to investigate how AVIRIS reflectance measurements vary with chemistry. The plot-level leaf chemistry values were calculated from green leaf chemistry values and litterfall sample weights.
