Abstract

This data set includes measurements of mass loss, decay rate, and litter chemistry of mosses decomposing in the S1 Bog and Bog Lake Fen located in the USDA Forest Service Marcell Experimental Forest (MEF) in northern Minnesota, 40 km north of Grand Rapids. A litterbag experiment was used to estimate decay rates of 3 different moss types (Sphagnum magellanicum, Sphagnum angustifolium/fallax, and Polytrichum sp.) from mass loss measurements after one and five years in hummock and hollow microtopographies in the bog and lawn microtopography in the poor fen. C, N, and P contents of the mosses were measured initially, after 1 year, and after 5 years of decay. Sample collection and analyses started in 2014 and was completed in 2019. These data are from outside the SPRUCE experimental plots.

SPRUCE Tritium in Porewater of SPRUCE Experimental Plots and Neighboring Peatlands, and in Groundwater, Stream Water, and Precipitation of the S1 Bog, 2014-2016

Dataset Visser, A. ; Griffiths, N.A. ; Sebestyen, S.D.

This data set reports the tritium concentrations in (1) porewater from selected SPRUCE experimental plots located in the S1 bog and in (2) groundwater, streamwater, and precipitation in the S1 bog watershed, and (3) in porewater from the S2 bog, S3 fen, and Bog Lake fen. All sites are located at the USDA Forest Service, Marcell Experimental Forest (MEF) near Grand Rapids, MN. Samples were collected between June of 2014 and August of 2016.These data include samples collected pre- and post-belowground warming treatments associated with the SPRUCE Experiment. There are 10 experimental plots in SPRUCE: 5 temperature treatments (+0, +2.25,more »« less
SPRUCE S1 Bog Porewater, Groundwater, and Stream Chemistry Data: 2011-2013

Dataset Griffiths, N. A. ; Sebestyen, S. D.

This data set reports the chemistry of S1 bog porewater, outlet stream water, and groundwater from upland wells from 2011 through 2013. These data provide information for studies of the biogeochemical status of the bog and surrounding groundwater aquifer. Porewater samples were collected from one nest of 6 piezometers installed in a hollow in the south end of the S1 bog to characterize solute chemistry depth profiles. Peat porewater was collected from piezometers that opened at 0, 0.3, 0.5, 1, 2, and 3 m depths below hollow surfaces. Samples were collected weekly (2011) or monthly (2012 & 2013) when themore »« less
SPRUCE S1 Bog Pretreatment Fungal Hyphae Carbon and Nitrogen Concentrations and Stable Isotope Composition from In-growth Cores, 2013-2014

Dataset Hofmockel, K. S. ; Chen, J. ; Hobbie, E. A.

This data set provides fungal hyphal carbon and nitrogen concentrations and stable isotopic composition data for samples obtained from the S1 Bog. Hyphae were collected using 40 μm in-growth bags (10 cm × 10 cm) filled with sterile sand. Bags were incubated in the field in paired hummock and hollows at six locations in the bog at three depths and two topographic positions. In hummocks, bags were inserted at +10 to 0 cm above the adjacent hollow and in both locations from 0 to -10 cm and -10 to -20 cm below the hollow surface. All measurements were made atmore »« less
SPRUCE S1 Bog Plant-Available Nutrients Assessed with Ion-Exchange Resins from 2011-2012 in the Southern End of the S1 Bog

Dataset Iversen, C. M. ; Ontl, T. A. ; Brice, D. J. ; ...

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 2011. Data were collected from 2011 to 2012 (prior to the construction of the SPRUCE experimental plots) at the southern end of the S1 Bog at three depths in hollow microtopography only. 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 Experimental Forest (MEF).
SPRUCE S1 Bog Areal Coverage of Hummock and Hollow Microtopography Assessed Along Three Transects in the S1 Bog

Dataset Ontl, T. A. ; Iversen, C. M.

Aerial coverage of hummocks and hollows was estimated in July 2012 in ten 4 m × 4 m plots each along three 60-m transects in the S1 Bog. Hollows were defined as the lowest elevation within plots and were typically at or near the height of the water table, hummocks included area above hollows, including the sides of the hummocks. 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 Experimental Forest (MEF).
