Title: Catalog of NCBI sequence read archive (SRA) data for salamanders at the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest 2012-2021
This project was designed to describe fine-scale population genetic differentiation of the stream salamander Gryinophilus porphyriticus among five study streams in the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest. The data are paired with intensive capture-recapture data to assess direct fitness effects of individual genetic diversity, including effects of individual multilocus heterozygosity on stage-specific survival probabilities. This dataset publishes a manifest of the genomic sequence reads submitted to the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) Sequence Read Archive (SRA). These samples are published at NCBI under the BioProject ID 1090913 (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/bioproject/1090913). The tables here include sample metadata and the NCBI URLs to each sample. 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.  more » « less

  1. Soil pits and horizons were described and sampled as part of the Lateral Weathering project within Watershed 3, Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest, Woodstock, NH, USA from 2018-2020. Soil pits were dug and described using NRCS methods. When possible, physical samples were archived in the Hubbard Brook Sample Archive. These data were gathered as part of the Hubbard Brook Ecosystem Study (HBES).

  3. Cone Pond Watershed: Soil Profiles (Pedons), 1988-2023 This dataset documents pedons (soil profiles) sampled at Cone Pond Watershed, Thornton, New Hampshire. Since the early 1980’s, Cone Pond, on the Pemigewasset District of the White Mountain National Forest, has been an active research satellite site to the nearby Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest. In 1988, intensive monitoring began as part of a comprehensive watershed scale ecosystem study. A weir was built on the main inlet stream, just above its mouth at Cone Pond, to monitor streamflow. Two rain gages were installed to monitor atmospheric deposition and multiple studies of major ecosystem components were initiated. Soil profiles documented in this dataset were sampled between 1988 and 2003. All descriptive profile and horizon data as well as chemical analyses of samples of genetic horizons are included in this dataset. Samples from 123 of these horizons have been accessioned into the Hubbard Brook physical sample archive; the archived mass of each is included in the horizon table. In addition to these pedons sampled in detail, a number of reconnaissance observations, made at a lower level of detail, and without sampling, were made in 2023 in order to validate a hydropedologic soil model created at Hubbard Brook. These data are included in a separate table. 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.

  5. This dataset documents all pedons (soil profiles) that have been located with GPS (2 meter horizontal accuracy) and have been described by genetic horizon for the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest, within the White Mountain National Forest, NH. Soil profiles were observed between 1995 and 2022 and have been described and sampled at two levels of detail. Soil profiles in the pedon table were dug to bedrock or into the C horizon except where high boulder content limited excavation. The depth of all major soil horizons was measured and most pedons had descriptions written and physical samples collected. The horizon table contains physical observations and chemical analyses for the horizons sampled in the pedon table. Over 2500 of these horizons have had physical samples accessioned into the Hubbard Brook sample archive; the archived mass is included in the horizon table. The reconnaissance table includes pedons observed at a lower level of detail. Small pits were generally dug to a depth of 40 cm or greater, and minimal observations, as needed, were recorded to classify the soil profile by soil map unit (hpu). These data were collected to supplement the detailed observations in the previous two data tables in support of development of a spatial model of soil distribution for the entire Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest. No samples were collected from reconnaissance pits. 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.
