Hello all,
Yet more shots will ring out in the name of science today. Sampling locations known to me are W1 and MELNHE plots near W101.
Tomorrow we will shoot the west of W6 samples as phenology is progressing and Ian is away on fire detail (usually he climbs to prune these leaves down).
Let me know if you have any special concerns or questions about these samples, which are being done to maintain the long term canopy foliage record, but also particularly in response to Charlie Driscoll's lysimeter N mystery presented at the meetings in July.

A small crew from UNH will be finishing up shotgun foliage sampling today of a subset of the Hubbard Brook valley-wide plots that we began sampling last week. We anticipate that sampling will be completed today, August 10, though pending weather and other conditions, it is possible that it will require one more day. If you have questions, please contact me (lucie.lepine@unh.edu) or Scott Ollinger (scott.ollinger@unh.edu, 207-423-4503) .
Thank you!
Lucie

A crew from UNH will be sampling foliage along a subset (12-20) of the Hubbard Brook valley-wide plots using 12 gauge shotguns this week. Signs will be posted along the road marking the lines the crews are sampling from. Leaf samples will be collected from trees adjacent to the plots and not from the plot interiors. Sampling is expected to start Monday morning and end Friday afternoon, pending weather and progress.
Thanks,
Scott
