All LTER Luquillo Data Sets

Numeric Dataset ID	Data Set Identifier	Abstract	Contact	Duration
156	Daily streamflow (Bisley area, 5 stations: Q1, Q2, Q3, Sabana, Puente Roto)	The daily data are summarized to monthly as follows: Daily average CFS are summed for each month and multiplied by 86400 (seconds per day) to yield cubic feet per month. This value is...	Grizelle Gonzalez	Long-Term Ongoing
157	Canopy Trimming Experiment (CTE) litterbag invertebrate counts and weights data	Identification, number and dry weight of invertebrates recovered from each litterbag.	Barbara A. Richardson	Completed
159	Canopy Trimming Experiment (CTE) Microbial diversity DNA data	Hurricanes are common disturbances in the Caribbean region that affect tree distribution, species diversity and biomass in forests. Little is known of how microbial communities in...	Sharon Cantrell	Long-Term Completed
163	Patterns in litterfall production from 12 forested sites along an elevation gradient in Pico del Este	We measured litterfall from 12 sites along an upper elevation gradient every two weeks from 1994 to present. Samples are being used to estimate the litterfall productivity over time and space...	Whendee Silver	Long-Term Completed
164	Canopy Trimming Experiment (CTE) trace gases	This data set provides the monthly trace effluxes measured across the soil-atmosphere interface from five soil surface chambers in all the CTE plots.	Whendee Silver	Long-Term Ongoing
166	Chemistry of soil solution collected from zero tension lysimeters in the Canopy Trimming Experiment (CTE) plots	Soil solution chemistry.	William H. McDowell	Long-Term Ongoing
167	Urban-Rural Temperature Data	Each of the stations listed in this excel file were used to calculate the urban heat island created by the San Juan Metropolitan Area.	David Murphy	Completed
44	Frog population plots (El Verde + Bisley)	Long-term population patterns of coquies likely result from a variety of influences. Key...	Lawrence L. Woolbright	Completed
97	Sabana pasture permanent plot vegetation sampling	Permanent plot data is expected to show these temporal patterns: (1) rapid increases in percent cover and tree stem density, and (2) rapid turnover from early to late successional plant...	Randall W. Myster	Completed
99	Herbivory of eight common species at El Verde from 1994 to 1996	In seasonal and aseasonal tropical forests, leaf production is often highly synchronous, concentrating herbivore resources in only a few months. As a result levels of herbivory on young...	Mitchell Aide	Completed
102	Leaf miners (Acrocercops sp.) larvae performance on young leaves of Manilkara bidentata	Manilkara bidentata is attacked by a specialist leaf miner(Acrocercops sp.(microlepidoptera:gracillariidae). More than one larvae can be found per mine within a leaf. The...	Mitchell Aide	Completed
108	Patterns in soil and physical properties of the Bisley Watersheds 1 and 2 (Big Dig 1988, Big Dig 1990)	(1) Exchangeable cation concentrations were measured using different soil extracting procedures (fresh soil and air-dried and ground soil) to establish a range of nutrient availability in...	Whendee Silver	Completed
109	Rio Icacos hyporheic and riparian chemistry	Hydrologic and chemical characteristics were determined for both riparian and hyporheic subsurface flow along a 100-m reach of a sandy-bottom tributary of the Rio Icacos in the Luquillo...	William H. McDowell Tamara Chestnut	Completed
115	Short-term disappearance of foliar litter of three tree species native to rain forest of Puerto Rico	Litter disappearance was examined before (1989) and after (1990) Hurricane Hugo in the...	Neal Sullivan William H. McDowell	Completed
116	Bromeliad chemistry at different elevations in the LEF	Mean concentrations of various nutrients in dried bromeliad leaf and in the coarse, medium and fine portions of debris retained by the bromeliad rosette.	Barbara A. Richardson	Completed
118	Species names and codes of the Luquillo Forest Dynamics Plot (LFDP), Puerto Rico	...	Jess Zimmerman Jill Thompson	Completed
120	Shrimp populations variability in numbers and sizes in response to disturbance and seasons on 20 pools along the reach of Quebrada Prieta, Luquillo Experimental Forest	Shrimp populations were monitored at approximately 3 week...	Nicholas Brokaw	Completed
130	Heliconia invertebrate counts	Identification and number of invertebrates recovered from each Heliconia inflorescence sampled.	Barbara A. Richardson	Completed
131	Bromeliad invertebrate counts at different elevations in the LEF	Identification and number of invertebrates recovered from each bromeliad sampled. Collection details of bromeliads collected for invertebrate...	Barbara A. Richardson	Long-Term Ongoing
132	Heliconia fluid and organic matter analyse	Mineral concentrations measured in Heliconia bract fluid and organic matter accumulated in the bracts.	Barbara A. Richardson	Completed
