Field Activity 2023-017-FA

Identifier 2023-017-FA
Alternate names CDR_23
Purpose Continuous monitoring of surface water and pore-water depth, salinity, and temperature, soil temperature and meteorological data, and pore-water collection for chemistry analysis in a salt marsh study site to examine environmental geochemistry and the impact of olivine amendments on salt marsh environments.
Location Wellfleet, Cape Cod, Massachusetts, United States
Summary Collected 51 Porewater samples chemical analyses . Sediment cores were collected for soil chemistry, biomass and microbial analyses. All field notes, raw data and associated information are located on a shared location on sharepoint (https://doimspp.sharepoint.com/sites/usgs-wetlandCDR).
Info derived Pore-water collections for chemical constituents (including DOC,DIC, Alkalinity, Chloride, Sulfate) and multi-parameter YSI measurements.
