Huemmrich & Campbell continue fieldwork with ABOVE
Fred Huemmrich (618/UMBC) recently shared the research he and Petya Campbell (618/UMBC) have continued with the ABOVE field campaign. They contributed to the NASA Earth Observatory's Notes from the Field, with the post "Illuminating a Boreal Forest's Spring Wake-Up."
"Our project is part of the NASA Terrestrial Ecology program's Arctic-Boreal Vulnerability Experiment (ABoVE), a large-scale field study in Alaska and western Canada, whose overall goals are to make use of NASA technology to gain a better understanding of ecosystems at high latitudes, their responses to environmental change, and the effects of those changes."
