The Ag Data Commons is migrating

The Ag Data Commons is migrating to a new institutional portal on Figshare. The current system is available for search and download only. The new platform is open for submission with assistance from Ag Data Commons curators. Please contact NAL-ADC-Curator@usda.gov, if you need to publish or update your datasets.

Central Mississippi River Basin LTAR Dataset: NFARM, Inorganic N, & C Production, 2016-2018

    In situ denitrification rates in intact soil cores from the Central Mississippi River Basin (CMRB) LTAR site in MO quantified by directly measuring dinitrogen (N2) and nitrous oxide (N2O) production via the Nitrogen-Free Air Recirculation Method (N-FARM) from 2016-2018. 10-day laboratory incubations provided estimates of ancillary soil data, including microbial respiration and potential net N mineralization and nitrification.

    Gulf Atlantic Coastal Plain LTAR Dataset: NFARM, Inorganic N, & C Production, 2016-2018

      In situ denitrification rates in intact soil cores from the Gulf Atlantic Coastal Plain (GACP) LTAR site in GA quantified by directly measuring dinitrogen (N2) and nitrous oxide (N2O) production via the Nitrogen-Free Air Recirculation Method (N-FARM) from 2016-2018. 10-day laboratory incubations provided estimates of ancillary soil data, including microbial respiration and potential net N mineralization and nitrification.

      Upper Chesapake Bay LTAR Dataset: NFARM, Inorganic N, & C Production, 2016-2018

        In situ denitrification rates in intact soil cores from the Upper Chesapeake Bay (UCB) LTAR site in PA quantified by directly measuring dinitrogen (N2) and nitrous oxide (N2O) production via the Nitrogen-Free Air Recirculation Method (N-FARM) from 2016-2018. 10-day laboratory incubations provided estimates of ancillary soil data, including microbial respiration and potential net N mineralization and nitrification.

        RZWQM2

          Root Zone Water Quality Model 2 (RZWQM2) is a whole-system model for studying crop production and environmental quality under current and changing climate conditions. It emphasizes the effects of agricultural management practices on physical, chemical and biological processes. RZWQM2 is a one-dimensional model with a pseudo 2-dimensional drainage flow. Crop simulation options include the generic plant growth model, DSSAT-CSM 4.0 and HERMES SUCROS models. It also can simulate surface energy balance with components from the SHAW model and water erosion from the GLEAMS model. An automated parameter estimation algorithm (PEST) was added to RZWQM2 for objective model calibration and uncertainty analysis.

          HYDRUS-1D

            HYDRUS-1D is a Microsoft Windows-based modeling environment for analysis of water flow and solute transport in variably saturated porous media. The software package includes the one-dimensional finite element model HYDRUS (version 7.0) for simulating the movement of water, heat, and multiple solutes in variably saturated media. The model is supported by an interactive graphics-based interface for data-preprocessing, discretization of the soil profile, and graphic presentation of the results.
