Abstract

This data package contains data and code used in the paper “Tree root nutrient uptake kinetics vary with nutrient availability, environmental conditions, and root traits: A global analysis”. The central product is a global dataset of root inorganic nutrient uptake rates and kinetics parameters covering temperate, boreal, and sub/tropical tree species, representing a collection of nutrient uptake data from published studies. This dataset enables tree investigation of root nutrient uptake rates across species, space, and experimental conditions. The data can also be combined with supplementary data on root and soil traits or with external datasets (e.g. R scripts contained within use data from FRED 3.0; (Iversen et al., 2021)). Contained within is the main nutrient data “uptake_data.csv” as well as 4 additional .csv files that link uptake data to supplementary measurements, source references, taxonomic information, and additional nutrient uptake measurements across nutrient gradients, and 1 .csv file that records meta-analysis results for plotting with the R scripts. There are seven R scripts that support data analysis and creation of the figures in the related publication.

Tree root nutrient uptake kinetics vary with nutrient availability, environmental conditions, and root traits: a global analysis

Journal Article Craig, Matthew E. ; Walker, Anthony P. ; Iversen, Colleen M. ; ... - New Phytologist

Root nutrient uptake by trees is a critical process that couples carbon and nutrient cycling in forest ecosystems. Yet, root nutrient uptake traits are poorly constrained, and the dynamics of this process are often not represented in models reflecting sparse measurements and understanding of root nutrient uptake physiology that lags those of aboveground physiology in forest ecosystems. Here, we present a global dataset of published nutrient uptake capacity and affinity values for tree species, with the goal of describing global patterns and evaluating responses to environmental drivers and associations with root traits. The dataset contains observations for ammonium, nitrate, andmore »« less
Data for "Depth of nutrient uptake by deep-rooted plants is regulated by water availability"

Dataset Li, Langlang ; Christensen, John ; Bill, Markus ; ...

The data set consists of strontium (Sr) isotope ratios (87Sr/86Sr), water isotopes, soil cation concentrations, soil water potential sensor data, and results of 87Sr/86Sr mixing model. The plant canopy size files include the dataset of canopy dimension of sagebrush, lupine, and sunflower. The soil and plant ICPMS (Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry) data file includes both of 87Sr/86Sr, and cation concentration dataset from soil exchangeable pool, apatite pool, silicate extract, atmospheric rain deposition, and plant leaf and stem tissues. The plant dendrochronology file includes the dendrochronogical ring width of several sagebrush, and dendrochemical sample data includes the 87Sr/86Sr for eachmore »« less
Tropical root traits in response to global changes from 1984 to 2023

Dataset Yaffar, Daniela ; Lugli, Laynara F. ; Wong, MIchelle Y. ; ...

This dataset is a compilation of tropical root traits data in response to different global changes in tropical sites, considering 23.50N and S as latitudinal boundaries. The global changes considered are warming, drought, flooding, cyclones, nitrogen addition, CO2 fertilization, and fire. This dataset contains 266 root trait observations from 93 studies across 24 tropical countries. The full citation from where the data was taken from is provided in the dataset, as well as the global change, the ecosystem type, location, coordinates, the root traits measured, and the direction of their response after the global change.

NGEE Arctic Plant Traits: Soil Nutrient Availability, Seward Peninsula, Alaska, beginning 2016

Dataset Salmon, Verity ; Iversen, Colleen ; Breen, Amy ; ...

Soil nutrient availability at all vegetation plots was measured using anion and cation binding resins deployed to vegetation plots at Kougarok, Teller and Council sites on the Seward Peninsula, Alaska. PVC resin-access tubes were installed with the first round of sampling and GPS coordinates were recorded. Access tubes place resin capsules in contact with soil and allow for repeated, undisturbed access to the same location through time. Concentrations of ammonia, nitrate, and phosphate in resin extract solutions were determined in the lab on an autoanalyzer. Data collection started in July 2016 and is ongoing.The Next-Generation Ecosystem Experiments: Arctic (NGEE Arctic),more »« less
