The Barrow research sites are located on the coastal plain just northwest of the village of Barrow. The vegetation is typical wet-sedge coastal plain tundra. The area has two year-round eddy covariance towers for CO2, CH4 H2O and energy flux along with other research projects in vegetation demography, tundra temperature/water manipulations, hyperspectral measurements and plant phenology. It should be noted that these sites are adjacent to the NOAA Climate Monitoring and Diagnostics Laboratory (CMDL) and the DOE's Atmospheric Radiation Measurement sites.
Measurements:Snow depth was measured in 24 locations around the eddy covariance tower every 3 to 4 days. Snow surface temperature was measured with a infrared thermometer.Digital photographs were taken using a Nikon Coolpix 900.
