Barrow

The Barrow research sites are located on the coastal plain just northwest of the village of Barrow. The vegetation is typical wet-sedge coastal plain tundra. The area has two all year-round eddy covariance towers for CO2, CH4, H2O and energy flux along with other research projects in vegetation demography, tundra temperature/water manipulations, hyperspectral measurements and plant phenology. It should be noted that these sites are adjacent to the NOAA Climate Monitoring and Diagnostics Laboratory (CMDL) and the DOE's Atmospheric Radiation Measurement sites.
