%AReinmann, Andrew%APamela, Templer%ASusser, Jessica%D2021%IEnvironmental Data Initiative %THubbard Brook Experimental Forest: Soil Freeze Study - Tree Growth %X{"Abstract":["The climate is changing in many temperate forests with the amount of\n forest area dominated by sugar maple experiencing an insulating\n snowpack expected to shrink between 49 and 95% compared to 1951-2005\n values. A reduced snowpack and increased depth and duration of soil\n frost can injure or kill fine roots, which are essential for plant\n water and nutrient uptake. These adverse impacts on tree roots can\n have important impacts on tree growth and ecosystem carbon\n sequestration. We evaluated the effects of changing winter climate,\n including snow and soil frost dynamics, by using tree cores to measure\n sugar maple radial growth rates in the Soil Freezing Study plots at\n the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest.\n\n \n These data were gathered as part of the Hubbard Brook Ecosystem Study\n (HBES). The HBES is a collaborative effort at the Hubbard Brook\n Experimental Forest, which is operated and maintained by the USDA\n Forest Service, Northern Research Station.\n\n \n Analysis of these data are published in: Reinmann AB, Susser JR,\n Demara EMC, and Templer PH. 2019.
