ChrisWallace AmandaField JimLaundre Tussock Watershed is a small inlet stream approximately 500 meters south of Toolik Lake (southwest of Toolik Field Station) that flows into Toolik Lake (approximately 68º 30' N, 149º 15'W). The Arctic LTER research site (68°N and 149°W) is in the foothills region of the North Slope of Alaska and includes the entire Toolik Lake watershed and the adjacent watershed of the upper Kuparuk River, down to the confluence of these two watersheds. This area is typical of the northern foothills of the Brooks Range, with continuous permafrost, no trees, a complete snow cover for 7 to 9 months, winter ice cover on lakes, streams, and ocean, and cessation of river flow during the winter. Tussock tundra vegetation of sedges and grasses mixed with dwarf birch and low willows form the dominant vegetation type with areas of drier heath tundra on ridge tops and other well-drained sites as well as areas of river-bottom willow communities. -149.6173 W -149.6173 E 68.62356 N 68.62356 S -149.75 W -149.0433 E 68.8 N 68.5 S 1990-07-02 to 2009-08-11 2007 text/plain http://hdl.handle.net/10255/dryad.30450 http://metacat.lternet.edu/knb/metacat/knb-lter-arc.1019.5/xml unknown ARC LTERThe Ecosystems CenterMarine Biological Lab7 MBL StWoods HoleMA02543USA(508) 289 7496arc_im@mbl.eduhttp://ecosystems.mbl.edu/ARC/ http://metacat.lternet.edu/knb/metacat/knb-lter-arc.1019.5/xml knb-lter-arc.1019.5 http://hdl.handle.net/10255/dryad.30450 Acceptance and utilization of LTER data requires that:The Principal Investigator be sent a notice stating reasons for acquiring any data and a description of the publication intentions.The Principal Investigator of the data set be sent a copy of the report or manuscript prior to submission and be adequately cited in any resultant publicationsA copy of any resultant publications should be sent to: Principal Investigator Ecosystems Center Marine Biological Laboratory Woods Hole, MA 02543 Toolik Lake tussock tundra thaw depth permafrost dataset 2007 ftdryad 2020-01-01T14:51:35Z Thaw depth was measured up the slope in a small watershed of tussock tundra throughout the 2006 season.
