NERC Foliar Chemistry Database:
Welcome to the Foliar Chemistry Database of the
Northeastern Ecosystem Research Cooperative
This is a web based foliar chemistry database that includes foliar
chemistry values for many of the major forest tree species in the
northeastern U.S (and a few herbaceous species as well). The elements and compounds included in this database
are: Ca, Al, Mg, Mn, P, K, Sr, nitrogen, lignin, cellulose, hydrogen,
and carbon.
Look for specific data
Currently this database contains data for about thirty species and over
8000 individual samples from throughout the Northeast. The user can search
for specific elements or compounds, specific location, project, elevation
and/or specific species. The information matched in the query can be
viewed on the screen or downloaded to your computer.
Contribute to the database
We are now able to incorporate additional data
from other interested researchers. Please let us know if you have data that
you would like to incorporate into this database by contacting
folchemadmin@sr.unh.edu, or registering your project through the link on the
homepage.
