| Description: | This marsh is on the Virginia Coast Reserve which was funded by the National Science Foundation and established in collaboration with The Nature Conservancy. ... This marsh is on the Virginia Coast Reserve which was funded by the National Science Foundation and established in collaboration with The Nature Conservancy. The VCR barrier island/lagoon system extends 110 km along the Atlantic shore of the Delmarva Peninsula. Sandy and dynamic barrier islands are backed by salt marshes and shallow lagoons and separated from one another by deep inlets. The EC tower is located about 2 km from the mainland and about 85 meters away from a major creek edge. It is a low marsh with a continuous canopy of Spartina alterniflora that is protected from the open ocean waves by barrier islands. See MoreShow Less |

The research and science objectives of the Virginia Coast Reserve salt marsh site are as follows: 1) Determine how the marsh atmospheric carbon exchange responds to environmental forcings over diurnal and seasonal time scales; 2) Quantify key environmental controls on net ecosystem exchange (NEE) of carbon dioxide (CO2) between a marsh and the atmosphere to determine seasonal light use efficiency of the wetland; 3) Investigate the response of the low marsh ecosystem to the expected increases in sea level rise from climate change.

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-VFP, 37.4111, -75.8333.
