The Simple Root Visualization application visualizes real and modeled nitrogen uptake data. The data represents a plot on a grid. For each tree and each grid cell, a value represents how much nitrogen is being consumed from the cell by that tree. The application uses this data to produce a variety of visualizations, including color-coded grid cells (shown) and isolines representing total nitrogen uptake, as well as color-coded grid cells and isolines for the number of different trees drawing nitrogen from an area.
