Upper Chesapake Bay LTAR Dataset: NFARM, Inorganic N, & C Production, 2016-2018

Published by Agricultural Research Service | Department of Agriculture | Metadata Last Checked: January 27, 2026 | Last Modified: 2025-11-22
In situ denitrification rates in intact soil cores from the Upper Chesapeake Bay (UCB) LTAR site in PA quantified by directly measuring dinitrogen (N2) and nitrous oxide (N2O) production via the Nitrogen-Free Air Recirculation Method (N-FARM) from 2016-2018. 10-day laboratory incubations provided estimates of ancillary soil data, including microbial respiration and potential net N mineralization and nitrification.
