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 .

GeoNEX Data Products

Beta: This AmeriFlux GeoNEX Products feature is in beta. If you spot any issues, please help us out by emailing geonex-feedback@lbl.gov with a description and/or screenshot of the issue. Thanks in advance!

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 .

Click a square in the grid at left to display its data below.

Description:	This tower is located at Acton Lake, a eutrophic reservoir immediately surrounded by forest but draining an agricultural watershed in Hueston Woods State ... This tower is located at Acton Lake, a eutrophic reservoir immediately surrounded by forest but draining an agricultural watershed in Hueston Woods State Park outside of Oxford, OH. The EC instrumentation was originally deployed 25 m from shore on a dock piling. In April of 2018 a lake tower was installed >200 m from the closest shoreline. The EC instrumentation was deployed on this aquatic tower on 7 May 2018. See More Show Less
