Chemical and physical data for analysis of nitrogen fluxes and nominal travel time in surface water

Published by Agricultural Research Service | Department of Agriculture | Catalog Last Checked: August 01, 2026 at 04:50 AM | Dataset Last Updated: February 17, 2026
Data were collected from a former cranberry farm that was restored to a wetland in Plymouth, Massachusetts, called "Tidmarsh". Between 2016 and 2024, data included surface water discharges, total nitrogen and nitrate concentrations in surface water, and specific conductivity concentrations to determine surface water travel times. Data were used for the following objectives: (1) watershed-scale water quality modelling to determine sources of N to Tidmarsh, (2) weekly field measurements to quantify seasonal patterns of NO3- retention by Tidmarsh, and (3) bi-monthly injections of a conservative tracer to quantify solute residence time and its effect on NO3- retention by Tidmarsh.
