Full aboveground harvest data: Interactive Effects of Fertility and Distribution on Plant Community Diversity and Structure

There are four levels of nitrogen, corresponding to treatments A, C, F and G in E001, applied at the same time as in that experiment. For a description of fertilizer added to E052, see file fertilization details. There are four levels of soil disturbance designated 1, 2, 3 and 4. Level 1: undisturbed Level 2: 1 pass with a 7 HP Honda rear-tined rototiller with the elevator set to till to a depth of 9 inches Level 3: 2 passes or however many required to produce about 50% bare ground Level 4: 3 passes or however many required to produce 100% bare ground. This requires 3 passes in some plots but 5 or 6 in others. In addition, all woody vegetation not destroyed by tilling is cut at the base. Rototilling is applied in late April. Each fertilization treatment receives each disturbance treatment, for a total of sixteen treatments. There are four replicates of each of the sixteen treatments. In addition, the four extreme ends (lowest N, lowest disturbance; highest N, lowest disturbance, etc. ) are replicated an additional ten times. Treatments are applied in a completely randomized design. Each of the 104 plots is 5m x 5m. Measurements taken at E052 will include: 1) species abundances, 2) community biomass allocation to leaves/roots/stems/flowers, 3) above and below ground net primary production and 4) rates of nitrogen mineralization. For a list of treatments, see the treatment layouts in file trmte52. The plots in E052 are enclosed by a fence to exclude mammalian herbivores. Galvanized welded-wire hardware cloth with 6mm x 6mm openings was buried to a depth of 50cm. Additional hardware cloth extends 60cm above the ground and poultry netting extends to 2m above the ground. In 1990, ten plots of each of four treatments (N1D1, N1D4, N4D1, N4D4, where N is the level of nitrogen added and D is the disturbance treatment) were randomly selected for the competition experiment. The above and belowground effects of neighbors on transplanted grass seedlings were measured using three

Plant species percent cover data: Plant Colonization and Species Diversity in an Old Field

This experiment was set up in field "B" on August 23, 1990, within the mammalian herbivore exclosure fence (see E001). This experiment consists of 8 treatments with 6 replicates of each. The 48 plots were randomly assigned their treatment. Plot size is 1m x 1m. Each plot is divided into 4 equal portions. Three of these portions were labeled subplots 5, 6 and 7. The other portion was subdivided into 4 additional portions. The latter subplots were labeled 1, 2, 3 and 4. Thus, each main plot has 7 subplots of which 3 are 0.5m x 0.5m in size and 4 are 0.25m x 0.25m in size. Seeds of many species were collected from Cedar Creek Natural History Area in the fall of 1990 and some were purchased. These seeds were added in the spring of 1991 to the plots according to the following treatments: 1: Control 2: Lightly raked in spring 3: Seed of 29 species added 4: Seed of 29 species + raked 5: Seed of 29 species + Schizachyrium seed (8000/m2) 6: Seed of 29 species + Schizachyrium seed (8000/m2) + raked 7: Seed of Schizachyrium (8000/m2) + raked 8: Seedlings of Schizachyrium (144/m2) Percent cover estimates were done in the fall of 1990 to get baseline data of the species present in the plots before adding seeds. For a list of treatments and the amount of seeds of each species added, see the treatment layouts in file trmte85.

Reproductive output--number of flowering heads: The Diversity and Abundance of Prairie Plant Communties

This study is divided into six experiments that test the influence of many factors on the diversity and abundance of prairie plant communities. Each "community" is a 2.25 meter square plot seeded with the same amount of seeds from 59 different species of plants. The first experiment is a nitrogen-fire-water factorial. The second experiment is a nitrogen-pH factorial. The third experiment is a nitrogen gradient and the fourth experiment is a nitrogen gradient with a diversity of seeds added each year. The fifth experiment is a disturbance gradient and the last experiment has three levels of soil heterogeneity (variance from the mean) for both nitrogen and pH. See trmte86, trmte103, trmte104, trmte105, trmte106, trmte107 for plot layout.

This study is divided into six experiments that test the influence of many factors on the diversity and abundance of prairie plant communities. Each "community" is a 2.25 meter square plot seeded with the same amount of seeds from 59 different species of plants. The first experiment is a nitrogen-fire-water factorial. The second experiment is a nitrogen-pH factorial. The third experiment is a nitrogen gradient and the fourth experiment is a nitrogen gradient with a diversity of seeds added each year. The fifth experiment is a disturbance gradient and the last experiment has three levels of soil heterogeneity (variance from the mean) for both nitrogen and pH. See trmte86, trmte103, trmte104, trmte105, trmte106, trmte107 for plot layout.

Soil nitrate and ammonium: Soil Heterogeneity and Plant Diversity in an Oak Savanna

This experiment was established in field D in August of 1991. There are 30, 2m x 2m plots. These plots are in prairie openings in unmanipulated natural vegetation. They were placed in a haphazard manner, being about 20m apart within an opening. Each plot was divided into 16, 0.5m x 0.5m subplots. Percent cover estimates of vegetation are done in September for each of the sixteen subplots in each of the 30 plots.
