Description
This dataset provides leaf-level visible-near infrared spectral reflectance, chlorophyll fluorescence spectra, species, plant functional type (PFT), and chlorophyll content of common high latitude plant samples collected near Fairbanks, Utqiagvik, and Toolik, Alaska, U.S., during the summers of 2019, 2020, and 2021. A FluoWat leaf clip was used to measure leaf-level visible-near infrared spectral reflectance and chlorophyll fluorescence spectra. Fluorescence yield (Fyield) was calculated as the ratio of the emitted fluorescence divided by the absorbed radiation for the wavelengths from 400 nm up to the wavelength of the cut off for the FluoWat low pass filter (either 650 or 700 nm). Chlorophyll content of samples was measured using a CCM-300 Chlorophyll Content. The data are provided in comma-separated values (.csv) format.

The leaf is placed in the clip and illuminated through the open port (A). Reflected and transmitted radiance are measured by attaching a fiber optic cable from the spectrometer to the top or bottom of the clip. To measure fluorescence spectra a low pass filter is placed across the illumination port (B). Two filters are applied in sequence, they block incident wavelengths above 650 nm and 700 nm, therefore any radiance measured in the longer wavelengths can come only from fluorescence.
