Cedar Creek Ecosystem Science Reserve site, station Old Field 44 at Cedar Creek, study of cover of litter in units of percent on a yearly timescale

The EcoTrends project was established in 2004 by Dr. Debra Peters (Jornada Basin LTER, USDA-ARS Jornada Experimental Range) and Dr. Ariel Lugo (Luquillo LTER, USDA-FS Luquillo Experimental Forest) to support the collection and analysis of long-term ecological datasets. The project is a large synthesis effort focused on improving the accessibility and use of long-term data. At present, there are ~50 state and federally funded research sites that are participating and contributing to the EcoTrends project, including all 26 Long-Term Ecological Research (LTER) sites and sites funded by the USDA Agriculture Research Service (ARS), USDA Forest Service, US Department of Energy, US Geological Survey (USGS) and numerous universities. Data from the EcoTrends project are available through an exploratory web portal (http://www.ecotrends.info). This web portal enables the continuation of data compilation and accessibility by users through an interactive web application. Ongoing data compilation is updated through both manual and automatic processing as part of the LTER Provenance Aware Synthesis Tracking Architecture (PASTA). The web portal is a collaboration between the Jornada LTER and the LTER Network Office. The following dataset from Cedar Creek Ecosystem Science Reserve (CDR) contains cover of litter measurements in percent units and were aggregated to a yearly timescale.

Effects of Long Term Canopy litter biomass carbon and nitrogen:Fertilization and Oak Canopy Cover on Plant Communities and Ecosystem Processes

In 1996 E142 was established in field D on top of the E004 macroplots. E004 was conducted in fields A, B, C and D by Dave Tilman. The purpose of E004 was to see what effect NH4NO3 addition has on large areas over a longer period of time with exposure to naturally-occurring levels of herbivory. The nutrient addition treatments in E004, E142 plots have been applied annually since 1982. These experiments, along with others at Cedar Creek, examine the community and ecosystem consequences of chronic nutrient loading.

Long-term deepened snow cover alters litter layer turnover rate in temperate steppes

<p>1. The turnover of litter layer is a biogeochemical process fundamental to carbon and nutrient cycling, influencing seed germination, species coexisting, and carbon storage. Winter snow depth is undergoing increasing trend in Northern China, which has been shown to alter litter decomposition rate of individual species. However, it remains unknown how changes in snow depth affect the turnover rate of the whole litter layer, and whether the responses vary between different steppes. Most current litter decomposition studies are site-based or short-term treated, limiting the exploration of the long-term response of litter layer turnover in regional pattern.</p> <p>2. In this study, we selected six long-term (11-13 years) snow fence sites in Inner Mongolia, with three in the dry steppe and another three in the wet steppe, and investigated the responses of community-weighted litter residence time (LRT) to long-term increased snow treatment.</p> <p>3. We found that LRT increased by 0.02 year for every 10 cm increase in snow depth in the wet steppe, but was not affected in the dry steppe. The lack of effect of deepened snow on LRT in the dry steppe was attributed to the offset between the positive effect of the increased plant community-weighted height possibly via inhibiting photodegradation and the enhanced litter recalcitrance by producing higher proportion of stem litter, and the negative effect of the increased soil moisture via accelerating microbial decomposition. The significantly positive effect of the increased snow depth on LRT in the wet steppe was mainly due to the positive effect of the increased grass biomass via decreasing litter quality.</p> <p>4. Overall, our findings indicated that deepened snow changed plant community, which altered environmental conditions and enhanced litter recalcitrance, thereby increasing LRT in temperate steppes. However, this effect was diminished by enhancing microbial decomposition in the dry but not wet steppe, resulting in different overall responses of LRT to deep-snow in the two steppes. The slow litter turnover rate in the wet steppe might result in greater litter accumulation under future increased snow depth, which could be unfavorable for seed germination and alter plant diversity.</p>
