Title: Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest: Longitudinal surveys of stream nitrate concentrations, W1, W3, and W6, Summer 2015
{"Abstract":["Detailed surveys of stream nitrate concentrations in the\n calcium-enriched (W1), hydrologic reference (W3), and biogeochemical\n reference (W6) watersheds were performed in the summer of 2015 with\n the goal of identifying "hotspots" of NO3- inflows into\n streams.\n\n \n Additional details on methods and analysis can be found at:\n\n \n Marinos, R. E., Campbell, J. L., Driscoll, C. T., Likens, G. E.,\n McDowell, W. H., Rosi, E. J., Rustad, L. E., & Bernhardt, E. S.\n (2018). Give and Take: A Watershed Acid Rain Mitigation Experiment\n Increases Baseflow Nitrogen Retention but Increases Stormflow Nitrogen\n Export. Environmental Science & Technology, 52(22), 13155\u201313165.\n https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.est.8b03553\n\n \n These data were gathered as part of the Hubbard Brook Ecosystem Study\n (HBES).

    In early September 2015, we sampled five debris dams in both the stream draining W1 and Bear Brook, immediately downstream of W6. This dataset contains laboratory analysis of potential denitrification enzyme activity assays from these sediment cores. Details of the analysis method are reported in the supporting information of Marinos et al. 2018. These data are being published only in the interest of full data transparency. These data have very important limitations, discussed in the supporting information of Marinos et al. 2018, and the authors advise anybody considering reusing this data to be appropriately cautious.

    The valley-wide plots are a grid of 431 sites along fifteen N–S transects established at 500-m intervals spanning the entire Hubbard Brook Valley. This dataset includes total soil carbon, nitrogen and organic matter content, potential net nitrogen mineralization and nitrification rates, microbial respiration rates, soil water content and holding capacity, soil ammonium and nitrate concentrations, soil pH, and tree composition in a subset of 100 randomly selected plots in 2000. These data were gathered as part of the Hubbard Brook Ecosystem Study (HBES). The HBES is a collaborative effort at the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest, which is operated and maintained by the USDA Forest Service, Northern Research Station. An analysis of these data can be found in: Venterea, R. T., Lovett, G. M., Groffman, P. M., & Schwarz, P. A. (2003). Landscape patterns of net nitrification in a northern hardwood-conifer forest. Soil Science Soc. Amer. J., 67, 527–539. https://doi.org/10.2136/sssaj2003.5270

    Soil atmosphere fluxes of the trace gases; carbon dioxide (CO2), nitrous oxide (N2O) and methane (CH4) have been measured at several locations at the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest (HBEF) including 1) the “freeze” study reference plots that provide contrast between stands dominated (80%) by sugar maple versus yellow birch and low and high elevation areas, 2) the Bear Brook Watershed where trace gas sampling is coordinated with long-term monitoring of microbial biomass and activity and 3) watershed 1 where trace gas sampling locations were co-located with long-term microbial biomass and activity monitoring sites that are located near a subset of the lysimeter sites established for the calcium addition study on this watershed. This dataset contains the Freeze study data. Watershed 1 and Bear Brook trace gas data can be found in: https://portal.edirepository.org/nis/mapbrowse?scope=knb-lter-hbr&identifier=116. These data were gathered as part of the Hubbard Brook Ecosystem Study (HBES). The HBES is a collaborative effort at the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest, which is operated and maintained by the USDA Forest Service, Northern Research Station. These data have been published in: Groffman, P. M., Hardy, J. P., Driscoll, C. T., & Fahey, T. J. (2006). Snow depth, soil freezing, and fluxes of carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide and methane in a northern hardwood forest. Global Change Biology, 12, 1748–1760.

    The Multiple Element Limitation in Northern Hardwood Ecosystems (MELNHE) project studies N and P acquisition and limitation of forest productivity through a series of nutrient manipulations in northern hardwood forests. This data set is published in support of a manuscript titled "Nitrogen and phosphorus co-limitation of forest growth in northern hardwood forests" and includes data and code used in the analysis. The primary diameter breast height dataset can be found in: Fisk, M.C., R.D. Yanai, and T.J. Fahey. 2025. Tree DBH response to nitrogen and phosphorus fertilization in the MELNHE study, Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest, Bartlett Experimental Forest, and Jeffers Brook ver 2. Environmental Data Initiative. https://doi.org/10.6073/pasta/fb8f8d5b903627bee9ad6aa4c32f2289. Additional detail on the MELNHE project, including a datatable of site descriptions and a pdf file with the project description and diagram of plot configuration can be found in this data package: https://portal.edirepository.org/nis/mapbrowse?scope=knb-lter-hbr&identifier=344. These data were gathered as part of the Hubbard Brook Ecosystem Study (HBES).
