Abstract

This dataset reports the results of physical, chemical, and hydrologic analyses of soil cores collected at the NGEE Arctic Intensive Sites 0 and 1 (Plots A, B, C, and D) during late winter seasons (April-May) from 2013 to 2016. Locations were selected across the polygonal ground to include low, flat, and high centered polygons (LCPs, FCPs and HCPs) and internal features (i.e. the trough, center, and rim). The data are depth-resolved and down to ~ 4m below ground surface for some cores. The specific depths for each core where samples were analyzed vary from core to core.

Synthesis of Soil Geochemical Characteristics and Organic Carbon Degradation from Arctic Polygon Tundra, Utqiagvik (Barrow), Alaska

Dataset Zheng, Jianqiu ; RoyChowdhury, Taniya ; Herndon, Elizabeth ; ...

This is a synthesis data product that reports (1) the results of soil geochemical characterization and (2) organic carbon degradation in low temperature soil incubations on cores collected on the NGEE Arctic Study Area near Utqiagvik (Barrow), Alaska. The study area consists of thaw lakes, drained thaw lake basins and interstitial tundra with a polygonal landscape of microtopographic features created by ice wedges. Integrated geochemical and organic carbon degradation data from 9 individual soil cores collected in April 2012 and April 2013 are included in the synthesis product. This dataset contains one pdf file and nine csv files.The Next-Generation Ecosystemmore »« less
NGEE Arctic Tram: Periodic Soil Moisture, Temperature, and Thaw Depth Measurements across Polygonal Tundra, Barrow, Alaska, 2014-2015

Dataset Curtis, Bryan ; Chafe, Oriana ; Peterson, John ; ...

Manual measurements of soil moisture, temperature, and thaw depth were collected in the footprint of the NGEE Arctic Tram starting 2014-07-20 and continuing through 2015-07-16. There were 10 periodic sampling events. These measurements were collected under the Tram observational platform. Probes were inserted into ground beneath the track closest to Tram sensors measurement locations at each Tram measurement position (Position # marked on the tracks). A MiniTrase Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR) instrument was used to measure volumetric water content (VWC; units = m3/m3). Soil temperature was measured with a thermocouple probe. Depth of thawed soil was measured from the topmore » of the moss layer or top of soil.« less

NGEE Arctic Tram: Continuous Soil Moisture and Temperature Measurements across Low- and High-Centered Polygonal Ground, Barrow, Alaska, 2014-2016

Dataset Dafflon, Baptiste ; Torn, Margaret

This data set reports the continuous soil moisture and temperature measurements collected from August of 2014 to September of 2016 along the footprint of the NGEE Arctic Tram. Soil moisture and temperature sensors are installed adjacent to the Tram at 8 locations of varying land surface types across the low-centered and high-centered polygonal ground. While the Tram operates seasonally these soil measurements are recorded year around. Data for the remainder of 2016 and 2017 will be added when available.

Soil Mesocosm CO2 Emissions after 13C-glucose Addition, Soil Physical and Chemical Characteristics, and Microbial Biomass, Barrow, Alaska, 2014-2016

Dataset Vaughn, Lydia ; Zhu, Qing ; Bimueller, Carolin ; ...

Measurements made from a 2014-2016 field glucose addition experiment. Dataset includes measurements of surface trace gas emissions (Delta13C of ecosystem respiration and source-partitioned surface CO2 flux, CH4 flux, and GPP), soil profile information (concentrations of carbon, nitrogen, and soil microbial biomass carbon, Delta13C of soil organic matter and microbial biomass, gravimetric water content, and bulk density), soil mineral nitrogen availability, and field-measured soil temperature, air temperature and soil moisture. Experiment was conducted in a region of high-centered polygons on the BEO. Data will be available Summer 2018.
