contents This field study was performed to obtain a defensible value for the surface reflectivity (albedo) of Juniper shrublands that could be used by Brigitta Ammann to quantitatively assess the role of Juniper shrublands in surface energy balance feedbacks to climate after the last glaciation. Measurements were carried out over a Juniper shrubland at mount Niederhorn, Switzerland (North of the Lake of Thun) during summer 2009 over a Juniper shrubland that was considered to present the most representative surface cover to estimate albedo for a modeling exercise that addresses biotic responses to the rapid warming around 14.685 ka BP at Gerzensee (Central Europe). For a detailed description of this data set see "Further details:"
