Detailed Fertilization Log — Nitrogen Deposition Study - LTER
Data in the KBS LTER core database may not be published without written permission of the lead investigator or project director Full terms of use
A log of the date, amount, and type of nitrogen fertilizer applied to plots of the Nitrogen Deposition Study. Annual N fertilization rates are split into 3 equal applications, which are applied to 1F, 3F, and 10F plots over the spring, summer and fall months. See the protocol for plot areas and fertilizer dilution and application procedures.
This datatable is part of the Tracegas fluxes in forests and old fields under enhanced nitrogen regimes dataset.
10 m2 plots in the old field and forest ecosystems were fertilized with 2 rates of nitrogen. N2O, CO2 and CH4 measurements were made with a static chamber method
