Dataset: plant functional traits used in ELM-FATES for arctic ecosystem
The dataset includes multiple configurations of plant functional traits that allowed ELM-FATES to reproduce aboveground vegetation biomass and composition observed at the Kougarok Hillslope site in Alaska. Detailed descriptions of parameters and other default values can be found at https://github.com/NGEET/fates. The ending numbers 7, 9, and 10 in the parameter names correspond to plant functional types of evergreen shrub, deciduous shrub, and graminoid, respectively.
