SPRUCE Diurnal and Seasonal Patterns of Water Potential in S1 Bog and SPRUCE Experimental Plot Vegetation beginning in 2010

Description

This data set reports on water potential from excised terminal shoots or leaves (Mainthemum only) of vegetation at the SPRUCE site located in the S1 bog. Pretreatment measurements were collected from outside plots within the S1 bog. Post treatments were collected from inside SPRUCE plots. Water potential was measured on the overstory canopy species, consisting of the evergreen Picea mariana (Mill.) B.S.P. (black spruce) and deciduous Larix laricina (Du Roi) K. Koch (tamarack) trees, and ericaceous shrubs < 1 m tall, consisting of the evergreen Rhododendron groenlandicum (Oeder) Kron & Judd (Labrador tea) and Chamaedaphne calyculata (L.) Moench. (leatherleaf). Some measurement campaigns also included the evergreen Kalmia polifolia, Wangenh. (bog laurel), the deciduous Vaccinium angustifolium (Aiton) (blueberry), and the herbaceous Maianthemum trifolium (L.) Sloboda (three-leaf false Solomon’s seal).

This dataset contains one data file in comma-separated (*.csv) format. This is the second release of water potential data from the site with additional data from 2018 and 2019. These data cover 2010-06-22 to 2019-07-16.  Further results will be added to this data set and released to the public periodically as quality assurance and publication of results are accomplished.

There are 10 experimental plots in SPRUCE: five temperature treatments (+0, +2.25, +4.5, +6.75, +9°C) at ambient CO₂, and the same five temperature treatments at elevated CO₂ (+500 ppm). These data span the pre- and post-treatment periods when enclosed plots were exposed to warming and elevated carbon dioxide (CO₂) within the SPRUCE experiment. The pretreatment samples were collected from south end of the S1 bog prior to SPRUCE boardwalk construction, then throughout the bog once the boardwalks were completed.
