DOI PLACE HOLDER

Abstract:

In summer 2015 and spring 2016, researchers collected soils from the CaSiO3-enriched watershed at Hubbard Brook (W1) and from a nearby site west of the reference watershed at Hubbard Brook (W6). These soils were sampled throughout the hardwood zone of each watershed, and the sampling scheme explicitly examined pit-and-mound microtopographic gradients. These soils were analyzed for acid-base properties, net and gross N cycling rates, microbial biomass, and C cycling rates.

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 US Forest Service, Northern Research Station.
