Informing grassland ecosystem modeling with in-situ and remote sensing observations by Johny Arteaga, Melannie D Hartman, William J Parton, Maosi Chen, Wei Gao

“…We determined that a modified RAP ANPP calculation that incorporated total annual precipitation instead of mean annual temperature to estimate the fraction of total productivity allocated to roots improved temporal correlations between RAP and field measurements and between RAP and DayCent-UV, We found that RAP provides a valuable data set for evaluating grassland ANPP predictions from ecosystem and other types of models because it provides estimates of grassland plant productivity over large spatial regions and a long historical period and captures temporal variablilty in plant production. …”
