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.

Granite Island is a small island on Lake Superior approximately 10 miles due north of Marquette, Michigan. It is roughly 6.5 miles from shore and is occupied by a lighthouse, bell tower, Coast Guard light tower, and other small structures. A flux tower to measure H, LE, and meteorological data was installed atop the bell tower in July of 2009 and has been in continuous operation since then (aside from occasional power outages or other sources of data loss). CO2 measurements were added to the flux tower in October of 2010. See More Show Less

The primary goal of this and other flux sites on the Great Lakes is to quantify lake evaporation as part of the Great Lakes Evaporation Network (GLEN). Granite Island is the second GLEN site to be added to the AmeriFlux network, with the first one being US-GL1 at Stannard Rock lighthouse (also on Lake Superior). See More Show Less
Acknowledgment:	Data collected at this site is the culmination of the hard work and contributions of numerous individuals, institutions, and funding sources. The principal investigator (John Lenters, University of Michigan) thanks Scott Holman (land owner) for the generous use of Granite Island, along with Mike Smith and Northern Michigan University for power and internet support, as well as student contributions. Funding sources include the Great Lakes Observing System (GLOS), Northern Michigan University, the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, and LimnoTech. Additional GLEN investigators include Peter Blanken, Chris Spence, Newell Hedstrom, and Erin Nicholls.
