Resource Abstract:
description: <p>This data package was produced by researchers working on the Shortgrass Steppe Long Term Ecological Research (SGS-LTER) Project, administered at Colorado State University. Long-term datasets and background information (proposals, reports, photographs, etc.) on the SGS-LTER project are contained in a comprehensive project collection within the Digital Collections of Colorado (<a href="http://digitool.library.colostate.edu/R/?func=collections&collection_id=3429">http://digitool.library.colostate.edu/R/?func=collections&collection_id=...</a>). The data table and associated metadata document, which is generated in Ecological Metadata Language, may be available through other repositories serving the ecological research community and represent components of the larger SGS-LTER project collection. Additional information and referenced materials can be found: <a href="http://hdl.handle.net/10217/82454">http://hdl.handle.net/10217/82454</a>. </p> <p>Above-ground plant material was harvested, by species, in July (PSC) in five years from ambient and elevated CO2 Open-top-chambers, and unchambered controls. There was a small difference in species composition, in the plots, in 1996; prior to any CO2 treatment; this data should be used as a covariate in looking at subsequent years. There was a consistent increase in plant productivity in the elevated CO2 chambers, primarily in the C3 grass group.</p>; abstract: <p>This data package was produced by researchers working on the Shortgrass Steppe Long Term Ecological Research (SGS-LTER) Project, administered at Colorado State University.
