The data set describes soil ergosterol concentration, which is unique to fungal membranes., from samples from Abisko, Sweden. The samples from Abisko, Sweden, were collected by E.A. Hobbie at a birch forest site and a tundra site. The Abisko sites are described in www.abacus-ipy.org/fieldsites/abisko.html.
Data Set Results
The data set describes soil ergosterol concentration, which is unique to fungal membranes., from an Alaska transect . The soil samples from Alaska were collected in a trip from north to south along the Dalton Highway. north of the Yukon River.
The Changing Seasonality of Arctic Stream Systems (CSASN) was active from 2010 to 2012. The CSASN goal was to quantify the relative influences of through flow, lateral inputs, and hyporheic regeneration on the seasonal fluxes C, N, and P in an arctic river network, and to determine how these influences might shift under seasonal conditions that are likely to be substantially different in the future. Point transects were done throughout the sampling season to determine different substrate and cover types on the stream bottom.
