Abstract:

Abstract ======== This data package consists of multiple decades of modified normalized difference water index (MNDWI) raster data across the Central Arizona-Phoenix Long-Term Ecological Research (CAP LTER) study area within metropolitan Phoenix, Arizona (USA), temporally aggregated by year and by four meteorological seasons (Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall). By providing a metric by which to reliably identify bodies of open water, these MNDWI data are intended to facilitate analyses of land-based environmental variables (e.g., urbanization, vegetation, land surface temperature) and can also be used to track long-term and seasonal change in the coarse extent of open water as a land-cover type. MNDWI was derived, following the methods of Xu (2006), from annual and seasonal composites of 30-m resolution Landsat 5-9 Level-2 Surface Reflectance imagery. All imagery retrieval and data processing were completed with Google Earth Engine (Gorelick et al. 2017) and program R. A complete description of data processing methods, including the aggregation of imagery by year and season and the calculation of the spectral index, can be found in the data package metadata (see \'Methods and Protocols\') and accompanying Javascript code. **Citations:** - Gorelick N, Hancher M, Dixon M, et al.

Methods and protocols used in the collection of this data package

Description:

Methods: ======== This data package contains multi-year raster data derived from 30-m resolution Landsat 5-9 Level-2 Surface Reflectance imagery for the Central Arizona-Phoenix Long-Term Ecological Research (CAP LTER) study area within metropolitan Phoenix, Arizona (USA), 1998 to present. First, we temporally aggregated imagery for each year by generating median composite Landsat images by calendar year (annually) and by the four meteorological seasons of the Sonoran Desert: the cool and wet Winter (December 21th-March 19th); the hot and dry Spring/early summer (March 20th-June 20th); the hot and wet Summer (June 21st-September 21st), and the warm and dry Fall (September 22nd-December 20th). These seasons generally align with the timing of the long-term monitoring projects of CAP LTER and the astronomical seasons. Second, following the methods of Xu (2006), we used then calculated the Modified Normalized Difference Water Index (MNDWI) for each annual and seasonal composite image using the green (GREEN) and first shortwave infrared (SWIR1) bands, as follows: > MNDWI = (GREEN - SWIR1) / (GREEN + SWIR1) Lastly, we generated five-band GeoTIFF files for each year, with each band corresponding to values of MNDWI from each annual or seasonal timestep (band names: 'annual', '1\_winter', '2\_spring', '3\_summer', '4\_winter'). Images were cropped to a region surrounding the CAP LTER study area utilized by Sabu et al. (2023). All datasets were processed and examined using Google Earth Engine (Gorelick et al. 2017). **Citations:** - Earth Resources Observation And Science (EROS) Center (1999) Collection-2 Landsat 7 Enhanced Thematic Mapper Plus (ETM+) Level-2 Science Products - Earth Resources Observation And Science (EROS) Center (2013) Collection-2 Landsat 8-9 OLI (Operational Land Imager) and TIRS (Thermal Infrared Sensor) Level-2 Science Products - Earth Resources Observation And Science (EROS) Center (2020) Collection-2 Landsat 4-5 Thematic Mapper (TM) Level-2 Science Products - Gorelick N, Hancher M, Dixon M, et al.

Abstract:

Humankind is increasingly an urban species and urban ecosystems are therefore profoundly important. Cities are concentrated consumers of energy and resources and producers of various wastes, but they are also centers of social networks, innovation, efficiency, and solutions. The Central Arizona?Phoenix Long Term Ecological Research program (CAP V) is a research project that includes scientists from a variety of disciplines focused on understanding cities as hybrid ecosystems including both environmental and human components, and their interactions. Understanding urban ecosystems remains the central focus of CAP V after 25 years of innovative research. The interconnectedness of human motivation, behavior, actions, and outcomes with urban ecosystem structure and function leads to a fundamental question addressed by this project. How have/are human-environment interactions mediated by urban ecological infrastructure to shape past, present, and future ecosystem functions? This project will further indicate how we can use knowledge of these relationships to inform more just, transformative, and sustainable futures. Broader societal impacts are intentionally integrated in CAP V research, with many activities involving explicit partnerships with practitioners and communities that historically have had little voice in the future of their city and environment. This work forms a translational link among social-ecological research outcomes, city institutions, and communities with the goal of ultimately making Phoenix, and cities in general, better and more sustainable places to live. CAP research will extend its focus on the theory of Urban Ecological Infrastructure (UEI) as a critical bridge between the system?s biophysical and human/social domains. CAP researchers will continue to explore interdisciplinary urban ecology in residential landscapes, urban waterbodies, desert parks and preserves, while examining the plants, animals, climate, urban design and governance across the metropolitan Phoenix region. New research initiatives will include a focus on environmental justice and equity, as well as urban air quality. The research will develop both knowledge and solutions in underserved and historically neglected communities, including local Indigenous communities. CAP V research is organized around five interdisciplinary areas: 1) ecosystem structure and function and biogeochemical cycling; 2) adaptation and eco-evolutionary dynamics; 3) urban climate, and air quality; 4) urban nature and human perceptions, decisions, and wellbeing; and 5) environmental justice, governance, and transformative futures. Investigating these questions, in the context of the previous 25 years of CAP research, will guide the CAP research endeavor towards more sustainable and resilient futures for U.S. cities and for our increasingly urban society. This award is jointly funded by the Division of Environmental Biology and the Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences. This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
