Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest: Stream sediment denitrification potential assays, Watershed 1 and Bear Brook

General Information
Data Package:
Local Identifier:knb-lter-hbr.319.1
Title:Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest: Stream sediment denitrification potential assays, Watershed 1 and Bear Brook
Alternate Identifier:DOI PLACE HOLDER
Abstract:

In early September 2015, we sampled five debris dams in both the stream draining W1 and Bear Brook, immediately downstream of W6. This dataset contains laboratory analysis of potential denitrification enzyme activity assays from these sediment cores. Details of the analysis method are reported in the supporting information of Marinos et al. 2018. These data are being published only in the interest of full data transparency. These data have very important limitations, discussed in the supporting information of Marinos et al. 2018, and the authors advise anybody considering reusing this data to be appropriately cautious.

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.

Description:

In early September 2015, we sampled five debris dams in both the stream draining W1 and Bear Brook, immediately downstream of W6. We used a slide hammer corer to sample sediments to 10 cm or refusal, taking 5 cores in each debris dam. We bulked the sediments by watershed and homogenized them by hand. We performed potential denitrif ication enzyme activity assays on these sediments in the laboratory. Details of the analysis method are reported in the supporting information of Marinos et al. 2018. These data are being published only in the interest of full data transparency. These data have very important limitations, discussed in the supporting information of Marin os et al. 2018, and the authors advise anybody considering reusing this data to be appropriately cautious.
