Forest Floor Mass, Organic Matter and Chemistry in Watershed 5 at the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest, 1982 Pre-Harvest Collection

Watershed 5 was surveyed in 1982 and clearcut in 1983. A pre-cut forest floor survey was done in 1982. This data set includes organic matter mass, thickness and trace metals for samples collected in the summer of 1982 as two separate collections, one in July and one in August. These data were gathered as part of the Hubbard Brook Ecosystem Study (HBES). The HBES is a collaborative effort at the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest, which is operated and maintained by the USDA Forest Service, Northern Research Station.
