Data Availability Name Objective Description Dates
DownloadableWhiteface Atmospheric Deposition DataQuantifying differences in the pathways of Hg deposition across elevational zones and forest cover type. This dataset contains methylmercury, total mercury, percent mercury as methylmercury, dissolved organic carbon, acid neutralizing capacity, fluoride, chloride, sulfate, nitrate and phosphate concentra
tions in open precipitation and throughfall. Plots are located in low elevation deciduous zone, mid-elevation coniferous zone, and high elevation alpine zone. Samples were taken monthly in May – August 2015.
