Bulk and amino acid-specific stable isotope analyses, and morphological taxonomy will be the primary methods used for this project. Isotope analyses of carbon (C), nitrogen (N),... -
St. Clair - Detroit River System: Total Phosphorus Mass B alance
This study integrated United States and Canadian data to update and extend total phosphorus (TP) loads into and out of the St. Clair-Detroit River System for 1998-2016. The... -
Characterizing temporal and spatial changes to the soil microbiome through th...
Agricultural soil from the rare Charitable Research Reserve, located in Cambridge, Ontario, was homogenized and used to pack four soil columns. Laboratory controlled conditions... -
Impact of non-growing season freeze-thaw conditions on nutrient cycling and F...
Four soil columns were packed with sieved agricultural soil collected from the rare Charitable Research Reserve located in Cambridge, Ontario. The lower sections of the soil... -
Nutrient Inputs and Outputs for the Greater Toronto Area, Ontario
In this work, a mass balance approach was used to quantify the flow of nutrients through urban, suburban, and rural areas of the Greater Toronto Area. A wide range of factors... -
Nutrient Data in Fanshawe Reservoir, Thames River, Ontario
Study sites upstream, downstream and within the reservoir are being sampled biweekly. Sampling includes collection of water and sediment samples, acquisition of depth profiles... -
Shrub expansion in Alpine Tundra of the Kluane Region
We have conducted experimental manipulations of shrub canopies in the south-western Yukon. For the 12 shrub and 12 tundra plots, we have measured soil temperatures, snow depths,... -
Betula glandulosa foliar nutrient data from Western Arctic, Inuvik Region
Ten green alder shrub patches located on south-facing slopes were selected within a two-kilometer radius of Trail Valley Creek research camp. Three meter wide belt transects... -
Soil Nutrient Cycling Data from Western Arctic, Inuvik Region
