  • Freshly senesced leaf litter was collected during autumn in New Hampshire at the Bartlett Experimental Forest, Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest, and Jeffers Brook as part of the Multiple Elementation Limitation in Northern Hardwood Ecosystems (MELNHE) study. Leaf litter was collected in October 2021 and 2022 at peak litterfall (i.e., mid-October) during a rain-free period. These leaf-litter samples were analyzed for nutrient concentrations for use in resorption analyses.

    This dataset includes photos of all of the leaf-litter samples used for chemical analysis. For the corresponding chemistry data, please see the following data package:

    These leaf litter samples correspond with green foliage samples collected in late July and early August of the same years: the green foliage data can be found in the following data package:
