Controls on Carbon Flux in Moist Acidic Versus Nonacidic Tundra, Arctic LTER Data

View Catalog Page

Entry ID

ARCSS090

Summary

In an effort to understand soil effects on carbon flux from moist acidic tundra versus moist non-acidic tundra, the investigators collected soil respiration, soil temperature, soil moisture, thaw depth, soil cation, leaf area, leaf nutrient, and litter nutrient data from Long Term Ecological Research (LTER) sites in northern Alaska. The ARCSS Data Coordination Center provides links to these data, which are archived at the Arctic LTER Web site.

National Science Foundation awards OPP-9902695 and OPP-9902721 supported this research.
