Data from: Monitoring standing herbaceous biomass and thresholds in semiarid rangelands from harmonized Landsat 8 and Sentinel-2 imagery to support within-season adaptive management

Metadata Updated: May 8, 2025

Tabular data from the manuscript "Monitoring standing herbaceous biomass and thresholds in semiarid rangelands from harmonized Landsat 8 and Sentinel-2 imagery to support within-season adaptive management" published in the journal Remote Sensing of Environment. Data are plot-scale values of (1) ground-sampled herbaceous standing biomass estimated using visual obstruction (VO) methods, (2) ground sampled percent cover by vegetation type using the line-point intercept (LPI) method, (3) percent midgrass derived from hyperspectral aerial imagery (1 m) collected by the NEON AOP (see Gaffney et al. 2021 cited within the manuscript), and (4) satellite-derived indices and bands. Only seasonal data used to develop the standing biomass model is included. The bounding box coordinates of each plot are also included. Resources in this dataset:Resource Title: Tabular ground and satellite-derived data. File Name: Kearney_Biomass_from_HLS_data.csvResource Description: Seasonal plot-scale tabular ground and satellite-derived data along with four fields (minx, miny, etc.) for the bounding box of the plots (EPSG:32613 - UTM 13N, WGS 84). Data includes (1) ground-sampled biomass estimate using visual obstruction (VO) poles, (2) ground sampled vegetation cover estimated using the line-point intercept (LPI) method, (3) percent mid-grass estimated from a plant community map derived from hyperspectral aerial imagery (1 m) acquired by the NEON AOP, (4) satellite-derived indices and bands interpolated daily from the Harmonized Landsat-Sentinel (HLS) dataset (30 m).
