Nitrogen cycling “hotspots”: An approach for watershed scale assessments

Poster Number:  28 Presenter/Primary Author:  Peter Baas The high level of spatial and temporal heterogeneity in nitrogen cycling processes hinders our ability to develop an ecosystem-wide understanding of this cycle.

Edaphic Factors affect the abundance and activity of ammonia oxidizing microbes in Soils at Coweeta LTER

Poster Number:  24 Presenter/Primary Author:  Jeff Norman Ammonia Oxidation is the rate-limiting step of nitrification, a critical nitrogen transformation that controls nitrogen mobility in terrestrial ecosystems.  Ammonia oxidation is performed by t

Effects of urban stormwater infrastructure on dissolved nutrient export from semi-arid, urban watersheds

Poster Number:  23 Presenter/Primary Author:  Rebecca Hale The effects of urbanization on downstream ecosystems, particularly due to changes in nutrient inputs and altered hydrology are well studied.

A modeling approach to couple leaf decomposition and nutrient dynamics in forested headwater streams

Poster Number:  16 Presenter/Primary Author:  Laurence Lin We synthesized previous studies of nutrient processes in streams at Coweeta to construct a series of decomposition models for Hugh White Creek in Coweeta, a stream dominated by heterotrophic proces
