Greenhouse gas production and soil chemistry in soil Incubations after nitrogen addition, Seward Peninsula, 2018-2019

This dataset provides the results of laboratory soil microcosm incubation experiments conducted under anaerobic conditions with and without the addition of ammonium chloride (NH4Cl). The microcosms contained soil collected in April 2017 from the NGEE Arctic Teller Road Site at mile marker 27 (TL_MM27) near Intensive Site 9 (“Toeslope”) and Intensive Site 5 (“Plateau”). Incubations were conducted at 8°C for 55 days, with repeated measurements of headspace greenhouse gas concentrations. Microcosms were destructively harvested and extracted using ultrapure water and 0.1 M KCl for analysis of the porewater geochemistry.
