SUMMARY:Water Visualization Project at Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest\, NH
DESCRIPTION:  \n\nArtist Xavier Cortada and composer Juan Carlos Espinosa will stay on Mirror Lake (one of Earth’s most researched lakes) and join Hubbard Brook Principal Investigator Lindsay Rustad\, Ph.D. and other Hubbard Brook scientists to develop a project that visualizes the water cycle in Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest () using live data scientists collect onsite (e.g.\, precipitation input\, stream water discharge\, change in soil moisture\, and evapotranspiration + groundwater). \n\n\n\n\n5/4/2013 to 5/10/2013\n\n\nWhen:\nMay 4th through 10th\, 2013\nIn residence at Mirror Lake\n\n\nWhere:\nHubbard Brook Experimental Forest\nWhite Mountain National Forest\, USDA Forest Service\n234 Mirror Lake Road\nNorth Woodstock\, New Hampshire  03262\nUnited States\n\n\nContact:\nLindsey E. Rustad\, Ph.D.\, Team Leader and Forest Ecologist at Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest\nlrustad@fs.fed.us\n\n\n\nWater Visualization Project \nDuring early May 2013\, artist Xavier Cortada and composer Juan Carlos Espinosa will stay on Mirror Lake (one of Earth’s most researched lakes) and join Hubbard Brook Principal Investigator Lindsay Rustad\, Ph.D. and other Hubbard Brook scientists to develop a project that visualizes the water cycle in Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest (http://www.nrs.fs.fed.us/ef/locations/nh/hubbard-brook/) using live data scientists collect onsite (e.g.\, precipitation input\, stream water discharge\, change in soil moisture\, and evapotranspiration + groundwater). \n\nAbout Hubbard Brook:\nThe Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest was established in 1955 as a major center for hydrologic research in New England. Located in the White Mountain National Forest in central New Hampshire\, the 3\,138-ha bowlshaped Hubbard Brook Valley has hilly terrain\, ranging in elevation from 222 to 1\,015 m. The Hubbard Brook Ecosystem Study was established by a cooperative agreement in 1963. In 1988 the Hubbard Brook was designated as a Long-Term Ecological Research site by the National Science Foundation.  (More below) \n\nPast: 2012 White Mountain National Forest Artists-in-Residence \nCortada and Espinosa served as Artists-in-Residence at White Mountain National Forest.   The residency was presented in collaboration with the Arts Alliance of Northern New Hampshire (www.aannh.org). \nDuring July 2012\, the artists worked with White Mountain National Forest foresters\, scientists and trail builders and the local community to develop ideas for their work. Inspired by and responding to the forest\, the artists created site-specific works and temporary installations. \nOne of those involved\, “Wind Words\,” involved Hubbard Brook scientists.  See image below and\, more info and gallery at: http://www.xaviercortada.com/event/windwords-gallery \n\n http://www.xaviercortada.com/event/2013HubbardBrook \n \nAbove: Xavier Cortada (with the participation of Lindsey E.

Located in the White Mountain National Forest in central New Hampshire\, the 3\,138-ha bowlshaped Hubbard Brook Valley has hilly terrain\, ranging in elevation from 222 to 1\,015 m. The Hubbard Brook Ecosystem Study was established by a cooperative agreement in 1963. In 1988 the Hubbard Brook was designated as a Long-Term Ecological Research site by the National Science Foundation. \nClimate\nAnnual precipitation at Hubbard Brook averages about 1\,400 mm\, with one-third to one-quarter as snow. The month of January averages about -9 °C and the average July temperature is 18 °C. The average number of days without killing frost is 145. The estimated annual evapotranspiration is about 500 mm. \nSoils\nSoils at the Hubbard Brook are predominantly welldrained Spodosols (Typic Haplorthods) derived from glacial till\, with sandy loam textures. They are acidic (pH about 4.5 or less) and relatively infertile (base saturation of mineral soil ~ 10 percent). Soil depths\, including unweathered till\, average about 2.0 m surface to bedrock\, though this is highly variable. Depth to the C horizon averages about 0.6 m. At various places\, the C horizon exists as an impermeable pan. \nVegetation\nThe present second-growth forest is even-aged and composed of about 80 to 90 percent northern hardwoods and 10 to 20 percent spruce-fir. \nResearch\, Past and Present\nAt Hubbard Brook\, the following topics are being studied:\n• The role of calcium supply in regulating the structure and function of base-poor forest and aquatic ecosystems\n• Animal populations and communities\n• Colder soils in a warmer world: a snow manipulation in a northern hardwood forest ecosystem\n• Stream ecosystems\n• A spatial model of soil parent material\n• Modeling effects of acid deposition\, forest disturbance\, and soil chemistry on forest production and streamwater quality\n• Remote sensing for measurement of canopy nitrogen and calcium content\, and estimation of forest production and stream chemistry\n• Landscape-scale controls on N retention and N gas fluxes in the Hubbard Brook Valley\n• Nutrient uptake at the ecosystem scale\n• Carbon and calcium controls on microbial biomass and invertebrate grazers\n• Comparison of δ 15N and nitrification potential across a nitrate-loss gradient\n• Response of northern hardwood forests to nutrient perturbation\n• Edaphic controls on the structure and function of the northern hardwood forest\n• Vegetation dynamics and primary productivity \nMajor Research Accomplishments and Effects on Management\nAt Hubbard Brook\, the following subjects have been researched:\n• Small watershed technique for studying biogeochemistry\n• Factors regulating nutrient flux and cycling in northern hardwood forests\n• First documentation of acid rain in North America\n• Effects of forest harvesting disturbance on water quality and quantity\n• Long-term effects of acid rain on soil nutrient pools and streamwater chemistry\n• Relationship of interior forest bird populations and communities to forest structure and development\n• Development and application of ecosystem process models: 1) hydrological\, 2) forest growth and development\, and 3) soil nutrient processes \nCollaborators\nAt Hubbard Brook\, collaborators include scientists from other Forest Service research units\, Institute of Ecosystem Studies\, Brown University\, Dartsmouth College\, Syracuse University\, Cornell University\, University of Michigan\, Yale University\, Appalachian State University\, State University of New York-Environmental Science and Forestry\, USDI Geological Survey\, Wellesley College\, University of New Hampshire\, and Smithsonian Institution. \n\nResearch Opportunities \nThe Hubbard Brook staff welcomes new studies and collaboration on existing ones. There is a need for expanded cooperative research in the fields of soil physics and forest hydrology. \nFacilities\nThe Robert S. Pierce Ecosystem Laboratory located at Hubbard Brook provides 835 m2 of space\, including six offices\, four laboratories\, a conference room\, six dormitory rooms\, and a kitchen\, baths\, and showers. There is also a sample archive building and maintenance\, storage\, garage\, and shop facilities. \nLat. 43°56′ N\, long. 71°45′ W \n\nContact Information \nHubbard Brook Experimental Forest \nUSDA Forest Service \nNorthern Research Station \n271 Mast Road \nDurham\, NH 03824 \nTel: (603) 868-7636
