Abstract

Fine roots contribute to ecosystem carbon, water, and nutrient fluxes through resource acquisition, respiration, exudation, and turnover, but are understudied in peatlands. This data set consists of images of fine-root birth, growth, and death collected using non-destructive minirhizotron technology from a warming × CO2 enrichment experiment in a forested, ombrotrophic bog. Minirhizotron images were collected ~ weekly or bi-weekly beginning in 2013 in the 12 SPRUCE experimental plots in paired hummock and hollow microtopography. In each plot, one pair of minirhizotron tubes was installed within a 1.5 m radius of Picea mariana (spruce) or Larix laricina (larch) trees and one pair of minirhizotron tubes was installed in areas dominated by ericaceous shrubs Rhododendron groenlandicum and Chamaedaphne calyculata, for a total of 48 tubes. This dataset contains minirhizotron images from 2013-06-02 through 2021-10-22. Image collections were finished at the end of 2021. Each imaging session (including the treed and non-treed locations, which were collected on different days due to time constraints) resulted in ~4500 image files in JPEG (.jpg) format. Images were collected from 396 sessions (including treed and non-treed sessions) with a total of 1,068,722 JPEG images.

This data set consists of observations of plant-available nutrients assessed using ion-exchange resin capsules incubated serially in aerobic and anaerobic peat layers beginning in 2013 in the SPRUCE experimental plots at four depths in hummock microtopography and two depths in hollow microtopography. Data will be periodically added to until the conclusion of the SPRUCE experiment.
SPRUCE Plant Tissue Analyses from Experimental Plots Beginning 2017

Dataset Phillips, J.R. ; Hanson, P.J. ; Warren, J.M.

This data set reports the results of elemental analyses of foliar and stem/woody twig plant tissues collected from within the experimental treatment plots at the SPRUCE Experiment Site since 2017. Tissue samples for plant collections from the SPRUCE experimental plots are used to characterize the chemical (elemental) characteristics of plants in the bog, both prior to and following the initialization of the SPRUCE experimental warming and CO2 treatments. The experimental work was conducted in a Picea mariana [black spruce] – Sphagnum spp. bog forest in northern Minnesota, 40 km north of Grand Rapids, in the USDA Forest Service Marcell Experimentalmore » Forest (MEF).« less
SPRUCE Shrub-Layer Growth Assessments in S1-Bog Plots and SPRUCE Experimental Plots beginning in 2010

Dataset Hanson, Paul J. ; Birkebak, Joshua M. ; Phillips, Jana R. ; ...

This data set reports shrub layer growth assessments for the S1-Bog on the Marcell Experimental Forest in Minnesota from 2010 through 2023 (2010-08-01 to 2023-08-31, no data were collected in 2020 and 2022). Data were obtained by destructively harvesting selected plots of varying number and size. In early years a distinct hummock and a hollow sampling square were both collected, but in later years unsampled hollow areas became unavailable due to prior sampling or instrument installations. Harvested samples were broken down species, tissue type (leaf or stem/), and by whether tissue was from the current year’s growth or growth frommore »« less
