The BOREAS TE-10 team collected several data sets in support of its efforts to characterize and interpret information on the reflectance, transmittance, gas exchange, chlorophyll content, carbon content, hydrogen content, and nitrogen content of boreal vegetation. This data set describes the relationship between sample location, age, chlorophyll content, and C-H-N concentrations at several sites in the SSA conducted during the growing seasons of 1994 and 1996.
