Porous tension-cup lysimeter depths and soil water chemistry from 9 Hillslope Project sites in Macon County, North Carolina, within the Upper Little Tennessee River Basin

Porous tension-cup lysimeters were installed at 9 sites throughout Macon County beginning in 2011. Sites represented a gradient of land use, including relatively undisturbed forests, valley bottomlands in agriculture, and mountain developments. Eighteen lysimeters were placed at each site - 9 were shallow lysimeters located in the A horizon and 9 were deep lysimeters located in the B horizon. Collections were made every other week and samples were composited monthly for chemistry. The depths of the lysimeters were noted.
