The ChemCam campaign at the fluvial sedimentary outcrop ‘‘Shaler’’ resulted in observations of 28
non-soil targets, 26 of which included active laser induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS), and all of
which included Remote Micro-Imager (RMI) images. The Shaler outcrop can be divided into seven facies
based on grain size, texture, color,...
Accurately simulating gross primary productivity (GPP) in terrestrial ecosystem models is critical because errors in simulated GPP propagate through the model to introduce additional errors in simulated biomass and other fluxes. We evaluated simulated, daily average GPP from 26 models against estimated GPP at 39 eddy covariance flux tower sites...
