Abstract:
Weekly time series of measured electrical conductivity and pH values in litter leachate in the microcatchment Q2 (transects Q2.1, Q2.2 and Q2.3). The time series extends between MArch 1998 and December 2016. Litter leachate was sampled on the three transects with zero-tension lysimeters below the organic layer. On each transect 3 replicates at upper, middle and lower slope positions were collected, volume-weighted and bulked to one sample per plot and collecting interval. Electrical conductivity and pH values were measured immediately in unfiltered aliquots in the laboratory of the ECSF.
