F6 SnowFence

Samples collected on January 16, 2003 by Steve Blecker and Jen Mercer. Samples were collected from east side only according to the protocol developed in 2000/2001.

Walk-ways are immediately adjacent to the snow fence on the east and west sides and along the North sides of the rigging.

Samples were collected from the 6 transects extending 12 feet from the snowfence. The 1st transect is South of the snowfence and the following 5 transects follow the established rigging. Samples are collected 3, 6, 9 and 12 feet from the plane of the snowfence along each transect. Samples are collected on the north side of the walkways adjacent to the rigging. Subsequent samplings are always northward of the previous sampling divot. See accompanying map in the SnowFence directory for more detail.   All samples were taken approximately 1 foot to the south of the year 1 samples (which were easily identifiable divots in the soil) - this happend to place them approximately halfway between the nails of each plot.  Roughly half of sample 2.9 was buried under 5-10 cm of snow and ice and only sampled to a depth of 5 cm as the soil was frozen beyond 5 cm.  The location for sample 3.12 was entirely covered with 5-7 cm of ice. The ice was scraped away down to the soil surface - we returned about 1 hour later and the surface had melted enough to collect the chla sample - the bulk soil sample was collected by chipping out the frozen soil with a pick ax to a depth of 5 cm.

Samples were placed in backpacks and flown back to the Crary Lab where they were stored at +4C until analysis. [Steve Blecker 19 Jan 2003]

Samples were collected on 7 Jan 2004 by Johnson Nkem, Emma Broos, and Yvonne Baskin. Samples were collected only from the East side (closest to the hut) of the Snow fence at F6 according to the protocol developed in 2000/2001. Samplings were always northward of the previous years sampling divot. All snow had melted from the plots so no samples were taken beneath snow.[Emma Broos 12 Jan 2004].

Nematodes were extracted on 8 Jan 2004 and counted by Emma Broos and Johnson Nkem on 8-9th Jan 04. [Emma Broos 12 Jan 2004].

Samples were collected on 15 Jan 2004 by Johnson Nkem, Emma Broos, and David Hopkins. Samples were collected only from the East side of the Snow fence at Lake Bonney ie on the helopad side. Samplings were always northward of the previous years sampling divot. All snow had melted from the plots so no samples were taken beneath snow.[Emma Broos 27 Jan 2004].

Nematodes were extracted on 17 Jan 2004 and counted by Emma and Johnson on 17-18th Jan 04. [Emma Broos 27 Jan 2004].

Crispies refer to dead/damaged/dried up nematodes that look 'crispie' and the sex age and often species can't be determined. [Emma Broos 27 Jan 2004].

F6 Samples were collected on 6 Jan 2006 by Ed Ayres, Diana Wall, Byron Adams, Breana Simmons, Adler Dillman and Alison Redington. (NOTE: Sample labels say 5 Jan 2005 since that was the day we initially expected to go, however, that was cancelled due to the weather and we sampled on 6th Jan instead).  All snow had melted from the plots so no samples were taken beneath snow.

Nematodes were extracted on 7 Jan 2006.  Soil moisture, pH, EC and KCl were also done on 7 Jan 06.

Data was reorgnized and calculated by Breana Simmons on 22 Janary 2006.

The snowfence was in pretty bad shape. There was a large rip in the orange mesh, which was severaly off center from the plots. There were large swaths of soil missing where a rope likely broke loose and carved out a depression through E4.6, E4.3, E5.6, E5.3, and a little in the surrounding plots. Also on the east side, a large bootprint obscured the previous year's divot in E3.3. On the west side, there was similar damage in a triangular pattern in W3.3 and w3.6. There were six nails missing. Diana Wall put four back, but there are still nails missing at W3.6 and W4.6. Among the plots were several rocks wrapped in red tape. Byron Adams speculated that they were for a rock catch and release program.

Data was reorganized and calculated by Breana Simmons on 22 January 2006.
