Collection and isotopic analysis of xylem and soil water to determine plant water sources using δ18O and δ2H signatures combined with Bayesian mixing model to quantify proportional contributions from ...

Continuous measurement of tree water transport using thermal dissipation sensors with temperature measurements at multiple depths in sapwood to calculate sap velocity via heat pulse methodology.

Cellulose extraction using Brendel method followed by pyrolysis at 1400°C and isotopic ratio measurement by GC-IRMS.

Heavily instrumented sites to collect measurements capturing seasonal variations in hydro-biogeochemical processes as a function of landscape position.

Generation of contours showing the generalized altitude of the potentiometric surface for the shallow groundwater system. Contours were created from values in the raster dataset potalt.

Network allowing investigations across gradients in elevation, fluvial geomorphology, vegetation, water quality and bedrock composition including experimental manipulations.
