Title:Open sky Photosynthetically Active Radiation (PAR) monitored near three agricultural headwater streams in the Judith River Watershed (Montana, USA) during the 2021 field season
Alternate Identifier:DOI PLACE HOLDER
Abstract:

Open sky Photosynthetically Active Radiation (PAR) was monitored near ground level near three small headwater stream reaches in the agricultural area of the Judith River Watershed (JRW) lowlands in Montana, USA. The reaches were located on Louse Creek and Porter Creek on the Moccasin Terrace, which is a strath terrace located centrally in the intermountain basin between the Little Belt (west) and Big Snowy (east) mountain ranges. PAR was measured using LiCOR LI-192 quantum sensors and data was collected using Campbell Scientific data loggers. The quantum sensors were oriented approximately vertically, but precise leveling equipment was not used on the mounts. Timing of deployments varied with site access, but occurred between March and November during the field campaigns of 2021. The original planned use of the data was for inputs to models of whole-stream photosynthetic primary production. Data were collected as part of the Montana Consortium for Research on Environmental Water Systems (CREWS) project, with goals to understand how riparian corridors in the JRW process solutes from agricultural applications in transport from soils to streams.

Purpose:
Water quality in the Judith River Watershed (JRW) reflects a century of agricultural land use. High nitrate concentrations and persistent pesticide detections in shallow aquifers and streams are the consequence of soil amendments coupled with effects of weather and management for cereal and livestock production. This dataset contains results from multiyear deployments of sensors in riparian corridors of Louse and Porter Creeks on the Moccasin Terrace. The motivation for this data collection effort was to explore how riparian areas managed as cattle pastures contribute to alteration of groundwater entering streams, and attenuation of high nitrate concentrations and pesticide mobilization in those waters, resulting from intensive upland crop production.

Methods and protocols used in the collection of this data package
Description:
## Measurement methods Where more details are available, each description below is a cross-reference of the brief methods caption provided in the descriptions of the columns in full metdata for Data Tables under the Data Entities heading. ### *Deployed sensor clock* Measurement times are recorded based on the system time on the Campbell data logger. The Campbell system time was periodically synchronized with field computer. All data loggers are configured for UTC and any time zone adjustments are made at time of analysis. ### *Differenial voltage port on Campbell data logger serial number xxx wired to LiCOR quantum sensor serial number xxx* LiCOR quantum sensors are current transducers but include a shunt resistor adapter to allow compatibility with voltage-based analog data loggers (such as Campbell data loggers). The raw voltage measurements from the transducer are provided. ### *Linear model from voltage from Campbell data logger serial number xxx and LiCOR quantum sensor serial number xxx* PAR measurements are calculated based on a linear relationship with the voltage measurement (proportional to current from the PAR transducer), based on a multiplier provided by the manufacturer. ### *Field deployment protocol* PAR sensors were mounted approximately vertically by strapping them to T-posts. Leveling equipment was not available to ensure precise vertical orientation. Stations were checked with incremental data downloads approximately every 2 weeks. Field QAQC started with removal of data in downloads from older deployments. Data at Porter Creek also had to be removed due to the instrument being disturbed by cattle (see Porter Creek pipeline in 01\_input.zip for details). Description of potential QAQC tags in the column tag_FieldQAQC_quality include: - nkp: No Known Problems with the data - ium: Isolated Unknown Malfunction caused a temporary lack of PAR data availability (NA value) A column with a flag indicating whether the transducer was precisely leveled is also included (tag_FieldQAQC_leveled, 0 means not leveled and 1 means leveled). In the case of this data product, the transducers were not precisely leveled, so the value for this flag is always 0. ## Data processing methods This data product is designed to provide the provenance of final tables in a pipeline format, to the degree that provenance is available. Where available, raw data files from instruments and manufacturer software are available in the 01\_input.zip file. The coding used to process the data is available in the 02\_protocol.zip file. In this case, final processing was carried out with R scripts and R markdown files. Incremental files created for the purpose of data processing are available in the 03\_incremental.zip file. Ready-to-use analytical data are available at the data package's root level (on the dataset landing page under the "Resources" section) and are described in the full metadata. This data product represents a hierarchy of pipelines. The 01\_input.zip file contains folders with the individual pipelines for processing the data from each site: *JRWLLPAR01\_20210304\_PAR/*, *JRWPCPAR02\_20210604\_PAR/*, *JRWRRPAR02\_20210304\_PAR/*. Detailed notes on the processing for each site are available in those pipelines. ### *Contents of 01\_input.zip* - *meta/* - Directory with project templates for metadata - *abstract.md* - Markdown file with the data product abstract - *attributes_jrw.xlsx* - Excel file with commonly used table column attributes in the project - *intellectual\_rights.md* - Markdown file with the licensing information - *methods.md* - Markdown file with the methods information - *people_jrw.xlsx* - Excel file with tabular data on people associated with the project used for metadata generation. - *purpose.md* - Markdown file with the broader purpose of the research - *JRWLLPAR01\_20210304\_PAR/* - Pipeline with the data processing for the Lower Louse site - *JRWPCPAR02\_20210604\_PAR/* - Pipeline with the data processing for the Porter Creek site - *JRWRRPAR02\_20210304\_PAR/* - Pipeline with the data processing for the Louse Creek railroad site - *licor_quantum_calib.pdf* - Calibration sheets for the LICOR quantum sensors used ### *Contents of 02\_protocol.zip* - *.RProfile* - An R profile file with R code that establishes the appropriate working directory for the R project used to generate this data product. - *00\_build\_input.R* - R script to recompile the pipelines for individual sites - *01_processing.Rmd* - R markdown creating the data tables, general visualization, and associated metadata. - *01_processing_compile.R* - R script that compiles the processing R markdown to an HTML document processing_notes.html in the incremental folder - *10\_workflow.Rmd* - R markdown for compiling the data product, defining the generation of the metadata file, and the EML file based on EDI EML assembly line. - *10\_workflow\_compile.R* - R script that compiles the workflow R markdown to an HTML document (metadata.html) and the metadata to an EML file (eml.xml). - *RStudioProject.Rproj* - An RStudio project file provided for convenience in working with the code generating this data product with the appropriate working directory. R code in the protocol depends on R packages: readtext, knitr, EMLassemblyline, and xml2. Code also makes system calls to the zip command using arguments compatible with Info-Zip implementation 3.0, which appear to be mostly consistent with linux zip arguments. ### *Contents of 03\_incremental.zip* - *processing\_notes.html* - Notes on the processing of the data from the source pipelines R code included in this product will generate temporary files in the ./03\_incremental/temp folder. These temporary files contain no unique data or metadata and thus are not archived in the corresponding zip file.
