In situ soil respiration measured in the Arctic LTER treatment plots in moist acidic tussock and moist non-acidic tussock tundra
Data Set Results
Soil aggregate size distribution, aggregate carbon and nitrogen, and light fraction carbon were determined for mineral soils in moist acidic tundra. Soil was sampled in control, and N+P plots of the Arctic LTER Moist Acidic Tundra plots established in 1989 and 2006.
Plant available NH4, NO3, and PO4 was determined at sites near ARC LTER Toolik acidic tundra and at a toposequence along the floodplain of the Sagavanirktuk River using 2 N KCL and weak HCL extracts. This file complies data collected at different times from 1987 through 2001 and includes initial extracts taken for buried bag method of net nitrogen mineralization.

Soil respiration of carbon dioxide, and methane in waters from wet sedge plots near Toolik Lake, AK during the summer of 2004.
Soil respiration of carbon dioxide, and methane in waters from wet sedge plots near Toolik Lake, AK during the summer of 2002.
This file contains the Specific Activity of 14C from dissolved and gaseous species of carbon sampled from tussock tundra and wet sedge plots near Toolik Lake, AK during the summer of 2005.
Soil respiration of carbon dioxide, and methane in waters from wet sedge plots near Toolik Lake, AK during the summer of 2003.
Soil respiration of carbon dioxide, and methane in waters from wet sedge plots near Toolik Lake, AK during the summer of 2005.
Nitrogen mineralization was determined on LTER and Sag River tussock tundra using the buried bag method. Yearly bags have been deployed every August since 1990.
