Stream and hyporheic carbon dioxide (CO2) measurements in a headwater catchment, Watershed 1, and throughout Lookout Creek watershed at the HJ Andrews Experimental Forest, July 2013 to July 2014

DB Code: 
CF010
Abstract: 

We examined the spatial and temporal variability of stream carbon dioxide (CO2) in a headwater catchment. We measured stream and hyporheic pCO2 at at 30-minute intervals over 11 months in 95.9-ha Watershed 1, HJ Andrews Experimental Forest. We also measured stream temperature, pH and alkalinity which we used to calculate CO2 at monthly intervals from July 2013 through July 2014 at 38 locations across the 6400-ha HJ Andrews Experimental Forest.

Purpose: 

To examine the spatial and temporal variability of stream carbon dioxide (CO2) and the drivers of these variations in a headwater catchment for improved spatial and temporal scaling of stream pCO2 for watershed dissolved inorganic carbon flux estimates.
