Greenhouse Gas and Water Chemistry Data from Ponds in the Twin-Cities area of Minnesota, 2021
Freshwaters are significant contributors of greenhouse gases to the atmosphere, including carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), and nitrous oxide (N2O). Small waterbodies such as ponds are now recognized to have disproportionate greenhouse gas emissions relative to their size, but recorded emissions from ponds have varied by several orders of magnitude. To assess drivers of variation in pond greenhouse gas dynamics, this study measured concentrations and emissions of CO2, CH4, and N2O across 26 ponds in Minnesota, USA during the ice-free season. The studied ponds ranged in land-use, from urban stormwater ponds to natural forested ponds. Water chemistry variables were measured with sonde profiles as well as surface water samples. Greenhouse gas emsisions of CO2 and CH4 were measured with a floating chamber at three locations on each pond, and gas concentrations of CO2, CH4, and N2O were measured using a headspace equilibrium technique in both the surface waters and bottom waters of each pond.
Measurements of water column chemistry taken hourly over 24-hour periods at three sites in West Falmouth Harbor from 2006 to 2019
West Falmouth Harbor (West Falmouth, MA, USA) has been experiencing a dramatic increase in nitrogen loading from an upgradient municipal wastewater treatment facility since the early 2000’s. As part of a long-term study into the effects of this nitrogen enrichment, we have been measuring water chemistry at stations throughout the harbor to examine nutrient concentrations along the gradient from the highest loaded areas of the site to the most well-flushed. Water samples were taken hourly over 24-hour periods at 3 stations between 2006 and 2019. Due to covid restrictions on field and laboratory work, samples were not collected in 2020-2021; sample collection resumed in 2022 and data will be added after analysis. One station is in the well-flushed outer basin (OH) and one in the inner basin closer to the dominant groundwater N source (Snug Harbor, SH). These two were sampled at least once per year between 2006 and 2019. In two years, samples in the OH were taken at a location approximately 140m from the long-term site from this dataset. Those data can be accessed at doi:10.6073/pasta/73408abf801827966041c219f4222c1f. A third station is in the middle between the two, and was sampled in 2016 and 2018. Samples were processed for ammonium, phosphate, nitrate + nitrite, total nitrogen, and total phosphorus. On some dates, additional samples were run for silicate and chlorophyll. Salinity is reported for all samples. Samples were collected with an ISCO autosampler and stored on ice until analysis. Full analysis details and quality control methods are available in Hayn et al. 2014 (doi: 10.1007/s12237-013-9699-8).
Water chemistry data including nitrate stable isotopes sampled from zero-tension lysimeters in an Iowa corn-soybean field in 2017 and 2018
These data were used in the manuscript titled "Mechanisms underlying episodic nitrate and phosphorus leaching from poorly drained agricultural soils" published in the Journal of Environmental Quality. We measured nitrate, ammonium, and phosphate concentrations in zero-tension lysimeters installed along a topographic gradient in a corn and soybean field in north-central Iowa, USA, during 2017 and 2018. We measured nitrate stable isotope compositions in a subset of lysimeter samples. Concentrations of nitrate, ammonium, and ferrous and ferric iron were measured in periodic soil extractions co-located with the lysimeters.
Summer 2016 hydrology and water chemistry data at Second Creek, a sulfate-impacted riparian wetland in northeast Minnesota
Hydrological and water chemistry data were collected at Second Creek, a riparian wetland study site near Aurora, MN, to understand sulfur and methane processes. Data were collected over the summer of 2016. Hydrological data were collected using temperature probes and pressure transducers installed in surface water gauges and shallow piezometers. Water chemistry was analyzed in surface water samples and porewater samples collected with “peepers” (passive diffusive samplers).
Marcell Experimental Forest biweekly surface water and monthly porewater chemistry at Bog Lake Peatland, 2007 - ongoing
This data set reports the chemistry of surface and porewater water from the Bog Lake peatland in the Marcell Experimental Forest (MEF) in Itasca County, Minnesota, which is operated and maintained by the USDA Forest Service, Northern Research Station. Surface water has been collected about every other week since 2007 from a pool of water and sampling is ongoing. Once covered with ice, water was typically sampled once a month. Porewaters at five depths (0 to 2 m depths) have been collected about monthly from three different nest of piezometers since 2013, though never when samplers were frozen. Samples are measured for pH, specific conductivity, anions (chloride, sulfate), cations (calcium, magnesium, potassium, sodium, aluminum, iron, manganese, strontium), silicon, nutrients (ammonium, nitrate, soluble reactive phosphorus, total nitrogen, total phosphorus), and total organic carbon.
Stream, hyporheic, and ground water chemistry of McRae Creek in the Andrews Experimental Forest, 1989 to 1992
Measurements of nitrogen concentrations from grab samples collected from McRae Ck, and from a network of shallow wells located adjacent to the stream. All samples were analyzed for NO3 and NH4. Some samples include additional data such as DON and Total N, and sometimes temperature and dissolved oxygen concentrations were measured at the time the water samples were collected for analysis. Data were collected from September 1989 to September 1992 on an irregular basis to sample both baseflow periods and storm events across seasons of the year. Water samples were collected from the stream as grab samples; samples from shallow wells were pumped into a small flask using a vacuum pump and then transferred into a sample bottle.

Measurements of Soil Water Chemistry at the Coweeta Terrestrial Gradient Sites
This project is part of a larger examination of site productivity along an elevational gradient. Five tension lysimeters were placed at each of two depths, 15 cm and bottom of Bt soil horizon, along two transects running parallel to the contour of each 40 × 20 m terrestrial gradient plot. Soil water was collected weekly and composited at the end of each month. Values are the mean value for each site/month.
Riparian study: soil water chemistry (lysimeters) yearly data (1993 to 1997) at the Coweeta Hydrologic Laboratory
These measurements are a part of a near-stream vegetation manipulation experiment conducted on WS 56 at Coweeta. The purpose of the project is to determine the effect of removal of streamside Rhododendron maximum on the export of nutrients and organic matter, on microbial community function, on downslope coarse woody debris transport, on seedling regeneration, and on microclimatic variables such as soil temperature and soil moisture. Two experimental hillslope transects that span topographic flowpaths from a local highpoint to the stream were instrumented with lysimeters in two soil horizons, the BA (20-25 cm deep) and the B (40-50 cm deep). The vegetation cut was conducted on the "treatment slope" in Aug 1995. Shortly thereafter, Oct 1995, hurricane Opal blew down a significant number of canopy trees on the "control slope." Due to this natural disturbance, the project was adjusted to contrast the effects of natural vs human disturbance - a bank of lysimeters above the cut area was unaffected and now serve as the control data for the project. The treatment slope has been renamed the "cut slope" and the hurricane impact slope has been renamed the "storm slope." The project uses a terrain-fitted hillslope hydrology model (TAPES-C, IHDM4 hybrid) to account for water flux and nutrient loading from the hillslope before and after the cut and storm impacts.
Rainfall runoff water chemistry from 2 x 2 meter plots in grassland and creosotebush communities at the Jornada Basin LTER, 1988-1990
This data package contains data from natural rainfall-runoff plots installed on lands managed by the Chihuahuan Desert Rangeland Research Center (CDRRC) and the Jornada Experimental Range (JER) during the early years of Jornada Basin LTER (LTER-I and II). The purpose of this study was to analyze dissolved chemicals in surface runoff after precipitation events from creosotebush and grassland areas. In addition, some plots were treated with chlordane to remove termites. Nine hydrology runoff plots in the creosotebush sites (Larrea tridentata) were established in 1983 and 12 black grama (Bouteloua eriopoda) grassland runoff plots were established in 1989. Chemical analyses began in 1988 (1989 for grassland plots). Each plot was 2 × 2 square meters and surrounded on 3 sides by a metal frame. At the lower slope of the plot is a trough that collects the runoff for analysis. The data set includes the date of sampling, plot IDs, volume (L) of surface water runoff collected, and concentrations of F, Cl, NO3, SO4, NH4, Ca, Mg, Na, K, total N, and total P in mg/L. This study was completed in fall 1990.
