Marsh soil characteristics at nine GCE-LTER sampling sites in May 2001
Soil cores were collected from two tidal marsh locations at nine GCE-LTER sampling sites in May 2001. Bulk density and organic Carbon, total Nitrogen, total Phosphorous, Cesium-137 and Lead-210 content were measured in 15 2cm sections from each 30cm core. The sampling locations were chosen to represent three estuaries of the Georgia coast (USA) that vary in delivery of freshwater and sediment. This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of freshwater input on soil properties, accretion and accumulation.
Soil respiration and temperature measurements at 5 GCE-LTER sampling sites from June 2003 to March 2005
Soil temperature and respiration were measured in tidal marshes at five GCE-LTER sampling sites. The sites represent estuaries of the Georgia coast (USA) that vary in delivery of freshwater and sediment. Replicate measurements were taken from several locations at each site (levee, marsh plain, and marsh dieback) on seven dates between June 2003 and March 2005 to evaluate the effects of freshwater input on soil respiration over time.

Plant cover on 2 x 2 meter rainfall runoff plots in grassland and creosotebush communities at the Jornada Basin LTER, 1989-1990
This data package contains plant cover measurements collected at 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 quantify plant cover and phenology in grassland and creosote bush in runoff study plots, including those that included a termite removal treatment. Plant cover was measured on 20 2 x 2 meter hydrology runoff plots located in zones dominated by either creosotebush or grassland using sampling quadrats divided into 10 x 10 cm units. The number of 10x10cm squares occupied each by plant species was counted and scaled up to determine the total percent cover of each species per plot. Data recorded includes plant species codes, raw cover, percent cover, height of vegetation, and phenology. This study was completed in October 1990.
Rainfall runoff and sediment deposition from 2 x 2 meter plots in grassland and creosotebush communities at the Jornada Basin LTER, 1982-1994
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 measure infiltration and runoff rates related to rain event duration and intensity, and soil and organic movement in 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. Each plot was 2 × 2 square meters and surrounded on 3 sides by a metal frame. Rainfall was collected using a 10-cm diameter PVC pipe and a 120-liter tub. There are 4074 plot-events or observations in the data set. The data set includes the date of the rainfall event, relative cover of vegetation, sediment concentration in runoff (mg/l), precipitation (mm), deposited sediment, and percent carbon. This study began in fall 1982 and was completed in fall 1994.
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.
Termite foraging data from bait mass loss at eleven locations at the Jornada Basin LTER site, 1988-2000
This data package contains data on yearly mass loss of termite baits at the Jornada Basin LTER site in southern New Mexico, USA. Termites are important to litter decomposition and nutrient cycling in desert grasslands. This study measured annual feeding activity on paper baits by subterranean termites in desert shrubland and black-grama (Bouteloua eriopoda) grassland ecosystems over twelve years. Eleven sites, known as the "consumer plots" were included in the study. Toilet paper roll termite baits were placed on grids on each consumer plot. Data include initial bait weights before deployment, and bait weights after they were retrieved from the field each year. Mass loss of the baits was calculated as a measure of termite foraging activity. This study is complete.
Soil volumetric water content calculated from neutron hydroprobe data along the LTER-I transects (control and fertilized) at the Jornada Basin LTER, 1986-ongoing
This data package contains volumetric water content (VWC) measurements calculated from soil neutron hydroprobe data collected on the permanent LTER-I transects located at Chihuahuan Desert Rangeland Research Center (CDRRC) in the Jornada Basin of southern New Mexico, USA. The control and treatment transects are parallel to each other and are 2.7 km in length extending from the middle of the College Playa to the foot of Mt. Summerford. The treatment transect was treated annually with ammonium nitrate fertilizer (NH4NO3 at 10g N/m2/yr) until 1987. Measurement stations are located at 30 meter intervals along each transect, and there are neutron probe access tubes located every station on the control transect (n=89) and at every fifth station at the treatment transect (n=19). Measurements were taken at 5 depths using a neutron probe (CPN Model 503DR Hydroprobe) and were then converted to VWC at 30 cm, 60 cm, 90 cm, 110 cm, and 130 cm depths. Neutron probe VWC readings taken in 3 non-weighing mini-lysimeters along each transect are also included. This dataset consists of the calculated water content (cm3 water/cm3 soil) obtained by applying site-specific calibration equations to data derived from the thermalized neutron counts found in EDI packageID knb-lter-jrn.210001001. Measurements were taken at 2 week intervals from April 1982 to 1987 and monthly thereafter. Data collection for this study is ongoing.
Soil volumetric water content calculated from neutron hydroprobe data at 15 NPP study sites at the Jornada Basin LTER, 1989-2011 (Deprecated)
This data package contains soil water content data calculated from monthly neutron hydroprobe count measurements made at 15 net primary production (NPP) study locations on Jornada Experimental Range (JER) and Chihuahuan Desert Rangeland Research Center (CDRRC) lands. Once a month, neutron probe measurements are made at 10 depths (where possible) at each of 10 access tubes at each of the 15 NPP sites using a neutron probe (CPN Model 503DR Hydroprobe). The raw dataset, also on EDI (knb-lter-jrn.210013001), consists of the count of thermalized neutrons at 30 cm depth intervals to a maximum depth of 300 cm. In this data package, the raw neutron counts have been converted to volumetric water content (VWC) to a maximum depth of 270 cm using calibration equations (deepest probe depths are excluded from VWC calculations). The NPP sites these measurements are made at represent the 5 dominant vegetation types of the Jornada Basin, which consist of 3 shrub (creosotebush, mesquite dune, and tarbush) and 2 grass (upland grassland and playa) types. Three NPP sites are located in each of the types. This data collection is ongoing with new data collected monthly. NOTE: This data package is deprecated and will not be updated in the future. These VWC values were calculated using a now-outdated calibration method. Values of VWC calculated with the improved and fully documented calibration method are available in another EDI data package (knb-lter-jrn.210013003).
Vegetation cover data from line-intercept transects in the long-term Small Mammal Exclusion Study (SMES) at Jornada Basin LTER, 1995-2005
This package contains perennial vegetation cover data measured using the line-intercept method from plots with various levels of herbivore exclusion on Jornada Experimental Range (JER) and Chihuahuan Desert Rangeland Research Center (CDRRC) lands. Study sites were established in 1995; one in black grama grassland and the other in creosotebush shrubland to compare the impact of herbivores on ecosystem processes between these vegetation types. Parallel studies were established at the Sevilleta LTER site (New Mexico, USA) and Mapimi Biosphere Reserve (Durango, Mexico). Each study site is 1 km by 0.5 km in area. Four replicate experimental blocks were randomly located at the grassland study site to measure vegetation responses using exclusion treatments including a) all mammalian herbivores, including cattle, lagomorphs, and rodents, b) lagomorphs and cattle only, c) cattle only, and d) control accessible to all herbivores. Because grazing cattle are excluded from the entire creosote site, only three replicate experimental blocks were randomly located there including a) all mammalian herbivores, including lagomorphs, and rodents, b) lagomorphs only, and c) control accessible to all herbivores. Thirty-six sampling points were positioned at 5.8-meter intervals on a systematically located 6 by 6 point grid within each plot. A permanent one-meter by one-meter vegetation measurement quadrat is located at each of the 36 points. The vegetation line-intercept measurements in this data package were made in fall 1995 and fall 2005 to coincide with low-level aerial photography campaigns. Three 29-meter lines were measured along three out of six rows of permanent vegetation quadrats. Intercept locations for live, perennial plant cover and bare ground were measured along each line at 10cm resolution, which is comparable to the resolution of the aerial photos. Plants were identified to species level where possible. The resulting cover data can used to ground-truth cover estimates fro
Cryptogam crust data from the long-term Small Mammal Exclosure Study (SMES) at Jornada Basin LTER, 1995-2005
This data package contains cryptogam cover data from plots with various levels of herbivore exclusion on Jornada Experimental Range (JER) and Chihuahuan Desert Rangeland Research Center (CDRRC) lands. Study sites were established in 1995; one in black grama grassland and the other in creosotebush shrubland to compare the impact of herbivores on ecosystem processes between these vegetation types. Parallel studies were established at the Sevilleta LTER site (New Mexico, USA) and Mapimi Biosphere Reserve (Durango, Mexico). Each study site is 1 km by 0.5 km in area. Four replicate experimental blocks were randomly located at each study site to measure vegetation responses using exclusion treatments including a) all mammalian herbivores, including cattle, lagomorphs, and rodents, b) lagomorphs and cattle only, c) cattle only, and d) control accessible to all herbivores. Thirty-six sampling points were positioned at 5.8-meter intervals on a systematically located 6 by 6 point grid within each plot. A permanent one-meter by one-meter vegetation measurement quadrat is located at each of the 36 points. Each year in spring and fall from 1995-2005, the percent of a quadrat covered in cryptogams was estimated by summing the percent of each 10 cm square within a quadrat (including 100 10-cm squares) containing cryptogams (See methods for a detailed explanation). Cryptogams (biological soil crusts) include lichens, algae, cyanobacteria, and moss. This study is complete.

This data package contains termite activity data in plots with a range of herbivore exclusion treatments on Jornada Experimental Range (JER) and Chihuahuan Desert Rangeland Research Center (CDRRC) lands. Study sites were established in 1995; one in black grama grassland and the other in creosotebush shrubland to compare the impact of herbivores on ecosystem processes between these vegetation types. Parallel studies were established at the Sevilleta LTER site (New Mexico, USA) and Mapimi Biosphere Reserve (Durango, Mexico). Each study site is 1 km by 0.5 km in area. Four replicate experimental blocks were randomly located at each study site to measure vegetation responses using exclusion treatments including a) all mammalian herbivores, including cattle, lagomorphs, and rodents, b) lagomorphs and cattle only, c) cattle only, and d) control accessible to all herbivores. Thirty-six sampling points were positioned at 5.8-meter intervals on a systematically located 6 by 6 point grid within each plot. A permanent one-meter by one-meter vegetation measurement quadrat is located at each of the 36 points. Each spring and fall from 1995-2005, a tape measure was used to measure the length, diameter, and height in centimeters of each termite casing in these vegetation quadrats. This study is complete.
