This field had been in perennial forages (grass with small amount of legume) for several decades. Field size = 39 ha. In 2008, the producer tilled the land so that part of the summer had perennial forage, and the remainder was fallow. In 2009, oats were planted. In 2010, canola was planted. In 2011, oats were planted. See Table 3 in Taylor et al (2013) describing site management practices. See MoreShow Less |

PhenoCam Images and Derived Time Series Data
PhenoCams are high-resolution digital cameras that take repeated images of studied ecosystems and provide quantitative information about the canopy phenology. The PhenoCam Network coordinates the camera installation and data reporting/analyses across sites in the Americas, providing automated, near-surface remote sensing of canopy phenology across a range of ecosystems and climate zones. Use of PhenoCam images / data should follow the PhenoCam Data Use Policy .
No PhenoCam data for this siteGeoNEX Data Products
GeoNEX led by NASA Earth eXchange (NEX) is a collaborative effort for generating Earth monitoring products from the new generation of geostationary satellite sensors. GeoNEX has produced a suite of geostationary data products including surface reflectance, land surface temperature, surface solar radiation, and many others.
The GeoNEX Common Grid locates GeoNEX data in the geographic (latitude/longitude) projection. Pixels (grid cells) are created at regular 0.005°, 0.01°, and 0.02° resolutions.
GeoNEX pixels below cover the area 0.06° x 0.06° around and including site CA-MA1, 50.1645, -97.8762.
Click a square in the grid at left to display its data below.
