Description: | The study area is in a mixed shrub-dominated portion of the San Andres Mountain piedmont, along the southeastern boundary of the Jornada Experimental Range ... The study area is in a mixed shrub-dominated portion of the San Andres Mountain piedmont, along the southeastern boundary of the Jornada Experimental Range (JER) in southern New Mexico, USA. The JER was established in 1912 as a response of scientis and landowner to the shrub enchroachment and loss of grasses due to extended grazing during the late 1800s, fire and climate change. JER has been a NSF LTER site since 1981.The study site is a small watershed (4.67 ha) in an alluvial slope or bajada, with three major areas (north-, south- and west-facing hillslopes) with low to moderate slopes (∼0–6°) with a mean slope of 2.6°, while the channel banks and propagating channel heads have higher slopes (∼15–25°). The site is charactetized by a high bare soil coverage (∼66%), ∼28% of mixed shrubs coverage and a low coverage of grass (∼4%) and weeds (∼2%). 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 US-Jo2, 32.5849, -106.6032.
