This data publication includes daily estimates of streamflow, peatland runoff, and upland runoff for the S2 and S6 research catchments at the Marcell Experimental Forest (MEF) in Balsam Township, Itasca County, Minnesota. Data also include daily total organic carbon (TOC) yields. Measurements were taken during the March 1 to June 30 periods of 2009, 2010, and 2011.
Streamflow and runoff volumes have been measured in the S2 and S6 catchments at the Marcell Experimental Forest as part of the moitoring in the long-term research program. These data were compiled to estimate runoff and TOC yields for streams, peatlands, and uplands for a study of dissolved organic matter (DOM) biodegradability during and after spring snowmelt events.
Original metadata date was 12/13/2017. Minor metadata updates were made on 06/13/2019.
