[ID: 387] SITES Water Svartberget

SITES Water aims to build a long-term and well-coordinated measurement program that will form the basis for the infrastructure where hydrological, physical, chemical and biological parameters in lakes and streams will be measured. Seven lakes at seven different stations are central for SITES Water. The monitoring for SITES Water, including lake and stream sampling, is carried out in six of the stations catchments and therefore covers a gradient in aquatic biogeochemistry e.g. nutrient concentrations, water color and catchment characteristics. At Svartberget the mesotrophic humic lake Stortjärn is located in the Krycklan catchment study area. The catchment area of 0.65 km2 is composed of 54% coniferous forest, 39.5% mire, and 6.4% water and is dominated by Svecofennian metasediments/metagraywacke bedrock covered by till and peat soils. Lake Stortjärn has an area of 0.04 km2 a maximum depth of 6.7 m and a mean depth of 2.7 m. There are several types of data collected within SITES Water divided into six layers: 1: Background information, 2: Water balance, 3: Physical variables, 4: Chemical variables, 5: Biological variables, 6: GHG and C fluxes.
