dataset_eml_abstractheader

    A survey of the water quality of streams in the research area, draining both the east and west slopes of Mt. Mansfield. This survey has 2 objectives: (1) to establish baseline conditions for water quality on the mountain against which future water quality can be compared, and (2) to provide a snapshot of the ranges and spatial variability of water quality on the mountain, and use this information to identify nutrient-rich and nutrient-poor sites in the terrestrial ecosystem.

  • dataset_eml_sitecharacteristicsdescription: Sites on east and west slope of Mount Mansfield. East slope sites include: five sampling locations in northern slopes of Ranch Valley (1500-2700 foot elevations), two sampling locations off the Hell Brook trail (1900 & 3000 ft.), and one sample at the Big Spring. West slope sites include: four sampling locations in the Browns River headwaters (1700-2300 ft.) and three sampling locations in the Stevensville Brook drainage (1700-2300 ft.).
