Modeled Carbon Responses of Tundra Ecosystems to Historical and Projected
Climate
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/106.ARCSS075

Summary
This data set contains the model output data of Terrestrial Ecosystem Model
(TEM) simulations from 1920-2100 for both moist tundra and polar desert/alpine
tundra for the Pan-arctic, compared to output for the Kuparuk River Basin
(moist tundra). TEM simulates C and N fluxes and pools. 5,942 grid cells were
used in the Pan-arctic simulation, of which 3,614 were considered polar
desert/alpine tundra and 2,328 were considered moist tundra. All 19 grid cells
in the Kuparuk simulation were considered moist tundra. The values of several
ecosystem variables are compared between the Pan-arctic and Kuparuk. The
results of this study are presented and discussed in McGuire et al. (2000),
Modeling carbon responses of tundra ecosystems to historical and projected
climate: sensitivity of Pan-arctic carbon storage to temporal and spatial
variation in climate. Global Change Biology 6: 141-159. The simulations use
the moist tundra and polar desert/alpine tundra calibrations developed by
McGuire et al. (1992), based on data from Toolik Lake, Alaska.
