Tension-free lysimeters were installed in three soil horizons at three locations adjacent to Hubbard Brook Experiment Forest Watershed 6. At each location lysimeters were placed beneath the Oa horizon and within the upper and lower B horizon. Soil solution samples were collected approximately monthly and analyzed for pH, acid neutralizing capacity (ANC), base cations, soluble anions, trace metals, nitrogen and carbon. 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. 

Longitudinal variation in streamwater chemistry has been measured in two watersheds (W1 and W6) at the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest. This dataset includes samples that have been collected approximately monthly in Watershed 6 at six sampling locations (1982 - present) along an elevational gradient. Samples are analyzed for pH, ANC, anions, cations, nitrogen, dissolved inorganic and organic carbon. 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. 

Tension-free lysimeters were installed in three soil horizons at 13 locations within Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest Watershed 1, representing the variation in elevation and forest type of the watershed. At each location lysimeters were placed beneath the Oa horizon and within the upper and lower B horizon. Soil solution samples were collected approximately monthly and analyzed for pH, acid neutralizing capacity (ANC), base cations, soluble anions, trace metals, nitrogen and carbon.

Longitudinal variation in streamwater chemistry has been measured in two watersheds (W1 and W6) at the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest. This dataset includes samples that have been collected approximately monthly in Watershed 1 at five sampling locations (1991 - ongoing) along an elevational gradient. Samples are analyzed for pH, ANC, anions, cations, nitrogen, dissolved inorganic and organic carbon. These data were gathered as part of the Hubbard Brook Ecosystem Study (HBES).

Identifying which aspects of global environmental change are driving observed ecosystem process responses is a great challenge. Here, we address how long-term (10-25 year) alterations in soil moisture, and nitrogen (N) oligotrophication (i.e. decreases in soil N availability relative to plant demand), alter the production of plant-available N via net mineralization and nitrification in a northern hardwood forest. Our objectives were to determine whether soil moisture has changed over the past decade and whether N cycle processes have become less sensitive to soil moisture over time due to N oligotrophication. We used long-term data sets from several related studies to show: (i) increasing winter soil temperatures and declining summer soil moisture from late 2010 into 2024; (ii) reductions in sensitivity of N cycling rates to soil moisture, and (iii) declining moisture-adjusted N cycle processes (the ratio of rate of N process:soil moisture) over time in both summer and winter. These changes suggest continued reductions in N availability to plants in these forests, with potential effects on forest productivity and response to disturbance.
