Physiochemical water column parameters and hydrographic time series from river, lagoon, and open ocean sites along the Alaska Beaufort Sea coast, 2018-ongoing

To understand circulation and seasonality as part of the Beaufort Lagoon Ecosystem Long Term Ecological Research program, temperature, conductivity, salinity, pressure, depth, and current velocity are recorded hourly in situ, starting August 2018 in lagoons across the Beaufort Sea coast (Elson Lagoon, Kaktovik Lagoon, and Jago Lagoon). Moorings include combinations of 1) RBR Concerto CTDs with temperature, conductivity, and pressure sensors; 2) StarOddi CTs with temperature and conductivity sensors; and 3) Lowell TCM-1 Tilt Current meters with MAT-1 Data Loggers for velocity and bearing. In addition, during BLE LTER's annual sampling, water column physiochemical parameters (chlorophyll a, dissolved oxygen, phycoerythrin concentration, pH, temperature, conductivity, salinity) are measured by hand with a YSI data sonde at river, lagoon, and open ocean sites along the Beaufort Sea coast. Here we provide both quality controlled in situ mooring data and all YSI sonde data.

Size-Fractionated Chlorophyll a, Primary Productivity, and Photosynthetic Physiological Parameters of Phytoplankton in the Cosmonaut Sea, Southern Ocean, During Summer 2022

This dataset provides vertical distribution profiles of size-fractionated phytoplankton parameters measured in the Cosmonaut Sea, a marginal ice zone in the Southern Ocean, during the austral summer of 2022. Sampling was conducted across multiple stations spanning latitudes from approximately 33°N to 60°N and longitudes from -62°E to -67°E, focusing on surface and subsurface waters up to depths of about 40 meters. The data capture key aspects of phytoplankton physiology and productivity in this dynamic polar environment, influenced by seasonal ice melt and nutrient availability. Parameters include chlorophyll a concentrations (Chl a), primary productivity indicators such as maximum photosynthetic rates (PBm), photosynthetic efficiency (α), saturation irradiance (Ek), and integrated gross primary productivity (IGPPeu), all differentiated by size fractions: net phytoplankton (>20 μm), nano- and pico-phytoplankton (<20 μm), and total community. Additional measurements encompass photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) and mixed layer depths, providing context for light and stratification effects on phytoplankton dynamics. Data were derived from in situ incubations and fluorometric analyses, with values reported for discrete depths at each station to highlight vertical gradients in biomass and photosynthetic performance. This completed dataset is particularly valuable for studies on polar marine ecosystems, carbon cycling, and climate-driven changes in phytoplankton communities, offering insights into how size-structured assemblages respond to environmental gradients in the Southern Ocean. It does not include taxonomic details beyond general phytoplankton groupings but emphasizes physiological metrics for modeling primary production in ice-influenced regions.

North Temperate Lakes LTER General Lake Model Parameter Set for Lake Mendota, Summer 2016 Calibration

The General Lake Model (GLM), an open source, one-dimensional hydrodynamic model, was used to simulate various physical, chemical, and biological variables on Lake Mendota between 15 April 2016 and 11 November 2016. GLM (v.2.1.8) was coupled to the Aquatic EcoDynamics (AED) module library via the Framework for Aquatic Biogeochemical Modeling (FABM). GLM-AED requires four major “scripts†to run the model. First, the glm2.nml file configures lake metadata, meteorological driver data, stream inflow and outflow driver data, and physical response variables. Second, the aed2.nml file configures various biogeochemical modules for the simulation of oxygen, carbon, phosphorus, and nitrogen, among others. Third, aed2_phyto_pars.nml configures all parameters pertaining to phytoplankton dynamics. And fourth, aed2_zoop_pars.nml configures all parameters pertaining to zooplankton dynamics. This dataset contains parameter descriptions and values as they were used to simulate organic carbon and greenhouse gas production on Lake Mendota in summer 2016. Meteorological data and stream files used in this calibration are also included in this dataset. Additional methods and model descriptions can be found in J.A. hart’s Masters Thesis, University of Wisconsin-Madison Center for Limnology, May 2017. Readers are referred to the GLM (Hipsey et al. 2014) and AED (Hipsey et al. 2013) science manuals for further details on model configuration.

Calculation of parameter values based on observations for the herbaceous biomass plantation PFT representing Miscanthus in JSBACH3.2

<p>This dataset provides the calculation of parameter values and the observational data that was collected from literature used in these calculations for the re-implementation of a herbaceous biomass plantation (HBP) PFT representing Miscanthus in the dynamic global vegetation model (DGVM) JSBACH3.2 (Egerer et al. subm., N&uuml;tzel et al. in prep.). The parameters included are the maximum rubisco capacity (Vmax) at 25&deg;C, the PEPcase CO2 specificity (k) and specific leaf area (SLA). Some of the observed parameter values were already compiled in a dataset by Li et al. (2018). These observations were therefore re-used in this dataset (which is specified within the dataset sheets) and complemented with additional observed values from literature that has become available since then or was not included in the study by Li et al. (2018). A detailed methodology of the parameter calculations for JSBACH3.2 can be found on the first sheet of the dataset.&nbsp;</p>

MOD-LSP: MODIS-Based Parameters for Variable Infiltration Capacity (VIC) Model over the Continental US, Mexico, and Southern Canada

<p>The MOD-LSP project contains MODIS-based land and surface (soil and vegetation) parameters for the Variable Infiltration Capacity (VIC) model (Liang et al., 1994), release 5.0 and later (Hamman et al., 2018). The MOD-LSP spatial domain covers the continental United States, Mexico, and southern Canada; the associated domain files can be found in the <a href="https://zenodo.org/record/2564019">PITRI archive</a> (Bohn et al. 2018). This spatial domain and 0.625&deg; (6 km) grid resolution are compatible with the gridded daily meteorological forcings of Livneh et al. (2015) (&quot;L2015&quot; hereafter) (http://ciresgroups.colorado.edu/livneh/data/daily-observational-hydrometeorology-data-set-north-american-extent), which can be disaggregated to hourly time step via the MetSim tool (Bennett et al. 2018) using the <a href="https://zenodo.org/record/2564019">aforementioned PITRI domain files</a> (Bohn et al. 2018).</p> <p>These parameters have two main purposes: (1) to improve upon previous widely-used parameters over the region (e.g., L2015) with updated, higher-resolution land cover maps and spatially explicit observations of surface properties; and (2) to expand from a single parameter set corresponding to one point in time to a series of parameter sets that account for temporal variability at seasonal to decadal scales.</p> <p>A detailed description of methods, the data sources and purposes of different VIC parameter sets within MOD-LSP, and how to use them with VIC, can be found in the MOD-LSP User Guide.pdf, included here. The scripts that were used to create the MOD-LSP parameters are archived on <a href="https://zenodo.org/record/3364149">Zenodo and GitHub</a> (Bohn 2019).</p> <p>If you wish to present or publish results that use these parameter sets, please cite the following paper:</p> <p>Bohn, T.

Long-term trends in pesticide residues and physical chemical parameters of superficial water samples with accompanying macro-benthic invertebrate community surveys from the Palo Verde National Park, Costa Rica: 1993-1994; 2001; 2004-2005; 2009-2011

During the years 1993-1994, 2001, 2003-2005 and 2009-2011, the Central American Institute for Studies on Toxic Substances (IRET-UNA) executed independent research projects which quantified the presence of pesticide residues on superficial water samples from the Palo Verde National Park (PVNP) and surrounding areas. The PVNP (5460 sq km) is a RAMSAR wetland of international importance, which has been subjected to pesticide pressure from agricultural fields (mainly rice and sugarcane) since the 1960s and 1970s. In 1993, the PVNP wetlands were placed on the RAMSAR Montreux Record, indicating that it was considered an “impaired ecosystem” due to ecotoxicology concerns. Water is the key component of all issues regarding the biodiversity, management, restoration, and economic development of this region. Therefore, water quality is a critical component of many social ecological discussions and research efforts. This data package contains uniform pesticide, biological and water quality data from all PVNP wetland projects (1993- 2011) in order to present long-term trends in the environmental water quality and accompanying biological patterns for this conservation area. Study sites were spatially determined to compare clean upstream waters with a gradient of pesticide-affected waters. Superficial water samples were collected at various sites for chemical (pesticide) analysis and water quality parameters were recorded in situ for environmental monitoring. Corresponding biological sampling was completed to survey benthic macroinvertebrate communities and compare with local eco-toxicological profiles. This data package contains information from four separate projects.

Oak litter decomposition parameters across 19 Nutrient Network grassland sites in response to NPK and herbivore exclusion treatments

These data are from a study examining how herbivory and nutrient supply affect long-term aboveground decomposition. A novel oak litter was decomposed across 19 grassland sites of the Nutrient Network distributed experiment. At each site, a full-factorial experiment of combined nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium plus micronutrients ('control' or 'NPK') and mammalian herbivore exclusion ('fencing') was carried out in a randomized block design. The duration of the decomposition experiment varied by site but litter bags were harvested at approximately annual intervals for up to seven years. Litter decay parameters were calculated using four alternative statistical models of litter decomposition. Covariate data describing site and plot-level abiotic and biotic characteristics were also measured, including climate, atmospheric nitrogen deposition, live and dead aboveground biomass, and percent cover.

Bulk Parameters for Soils/Sediments from the Shark River Slough and Taylor Slough, Everglades National Park (FCE), from October 2000 to January 2001

The main goal of this research is the characterization of the sources, transport and fate of soil/sediment organic matter in Everglades National Park, and the determination of future potential effects of Everglades restoration on the source strength and accumulation rates of this OM. The general approach of this study is the seasonal sampling and analysis of bulk and molecular characteristics of soil/sediment samples from the FCE-LTER sites. Bulk parameters measured are d13C, C/N and %OC, while molecular characterizations are based on detailed biomarker analyses of extractable lipids and CP/MAS 13C-NMR of bulk OM. Preliminary results have allowed to characterize OM source strength throughout the transects, as well as determining other minor OM sources, diagenetic differences based upon OM quality and marine influences in the estuarine areas of the FCE-LTER study area.

<p>The dataset &ldquo;fluxes_meteoclimate_nivolet_V0&rdquo; is a .csv file reporting CO<sub>2</sub> Net Ecosystem Exchange (NEE) and Ecosystem Respiration (ER) measured at Nivolet Plain, Gran Paradiso National Park, Italy, in a high-altitude Alpine grassland environment (about 2700 m.a.s.l.) using the flux chamber method, during the 2017, 2018 and 2019 vegetative seasons (July-September), approximately twice a month. NEE is measured with a transparent flux chamber, while ER with a shaded chamber. Data represent the average values and the corresponding standard deviations obtained from four sites at different altitudes and geological substrate of the soil. Each average value is obtained as a mean over a set of more than 20 point-measures for each site and each sampling date. Flux data are complemented by measurements of soil temperature and volumetric water content, air temperature and moisture, and solar radiance. The four sites are characterized by soils developed over carbonates (carb) (45.500212N-7.152213E), glacial deposits (glac) (45.490167N-7.139916E), gneiss rocks (gnei) (45.490256N-7.149253E) and alluvial deposits (allu) (45.492656 N-7.146092 E).</p> <p>Other relevant shortcuts used in the .csv table: Std = Standard deviation; VWC% = Volumetric Water Content %. Meteorological and climate variables recorded during the measurement of NEE and during the measurement of ER bring the suffix NEE and ER respectively (es. Pressure_NEE (hPa) = atmospheric pressure recorded during the measurement of Net Ecosystem Exchange).</p>
