Description

This dataset was used for the paper "Riparian buffers mitigate downstream effects of clear-cutting on instream metabolic rates". Data includes modelled whole stream oxygen data and modelled oxygen data from bottle incubations of biofilms, all modelled to gross primary production and respiration. This manuscript is part of a larger project which aims at evaluating how current forest management practices effect ecological functions of headwaters. This specific dataset was collected to answer if negative effects of clear-cutting on streams also propagate to downstream reaches.

Data collection

Mode of collection: Measurements and tests
Description of the mode of collection: Each stream was equipped with a miniDOT (Precision Measurement Engineering Inc., USA) to record dissolved oxygen. Metabolism was estimated using the single-station diel oxygen method approach where gross primary production (GPP) and Ecosystem Respiration (ER) was estimated using Bayesian inverse modelling.
Time period(s) for data collection: 2021-07-14 – 2021-10-05
Data collector: Swedish University of Agrucultural Science
Instrument: YSI ProODO - The YSI ProODO utilize ODO® technology, an optical-based sensor, to measure dissolved oxygen.
Instrument: PME miniDOT logger - The PME miniDOT is a submersible instrument that includes an optical dissolved oxygen sensor.
Source of the data: Research data
Temporal resolution: 10 minute
