4 years ago I have the updated sheets - which still need some work, but I figure I can pass along for now. 2015 and 2016 Hog 1 need to have notes that biomass was collected in 1m2 plots - this was before we had planned to add them to nutnet (hence everything being totally different). We did not collect data this year, and will be decommissioning these. For Hog2 and Metompkin, we were unable to get species comp in 2018 bc of extreme heat. 2017 is the starting year for both (so species comp only). We had not been collecting PAR at the plots, but it looks like they may have this year (we are still drying biomass so 2019 sheets will be forthcoming). It looks like we will have to get you updated GPS points and I also need to get the weather data. And Joe said he would appreciate if you would get provenance data. At least we finally have most of our data properly organized! Thanks for your help and patience. Julie

I attached zipped folders for each site that has all the NutNet data that is current. I changed the block numbers for the new plots from 5 to 3 and I also added dates for applications (I put pre-treatment as a note in 2017). I did not change any "site" information for any of the years. So it still needs to be updated with weather data etc. I looked at some Hog 1 data that has biomass measurements that don't look like right to me (2015 & 2016), did Ashley use the 0.2 m^2 (if not then the data makes more sense)? All other years are reporting biomass for the 0.2 m^2. As far as the other things Ashley Asmus pointed out in her email:
1) We don't have PAR for any of the years except for 2019 (which I am still working on getting put together) unless someone else has that data is a separate sheet. 2) I think there are GPS points for the sites but I don't what she means by "more precise". I only have one GPS marker for the entire set-upon Hog and Metompkin so she might want coordinates fro each of the 3 blocks because that's what is on the website. 3) I would be getting provenance data from USDA anyway, so if they are willing to do that for us for those species, that would be great.
