This dataset contains three data files and three corresponding metadata files used in Bressler, A., and J. Blesh. 2023. A grass-legume cover crop maintains nitrogen inputs and nitrous oxide fluxes from an organic agroecosystem. Ecosphere. The file “N2O_Flux.xls” contains daily nitrous oxide data organized by replicate block, treatment, and date. The file “Soil_N.xls” contains nitrate and ammonium data organized by replicate block, treatment, and date. The file “Cover_crop_corn_soil.xls” contains baseline soil fertility characteristics, cover crop and corn biomass, nitrogen and carbon content, legume BNF, and cumulative N2O content organized by replicate block and treatment. The corresponding metadata files: “N2O_Flux_metadata.xls”, “Soil_N_metadata.xls”, and “Cover_crop_corn_soil_metadata.xls” provide detailed descriptions of all variables in each data set and any abbreviations used.
