Abstract

Once a year during the dry season (Dec-May) three live sawgrass plants are collected from each site. These plants are divided into their live above and live below ground parts. Then both the above and below ground parts are analyzed for total nitrogen (TN), total carbon (TC), and total phosphorus (TP). This package (knb-lter-fce.1295) includes all data found in knb-lter-fce.1070 (https://portal.edirepository.org/nis/mapbrowse?scope=knb-lter-fce&identifier=1070) and knb-lter-fce.1071 (https://portal.edirepository.org/nis/mapbrowse?scope=knb-lter-fce&identifier=1071), and it supersedes them. Additions of new sawgrass nutrient data for Florida Coastal Everglades Long Term Ecological Research (FCE LTER) program Shark River Slough sites will only be made to knb-lter-fce.1295.
